Making a Poster
Hi my name is marques. i did a poster. i used high lighter yellow and orange pink light purple and baby blue on construction paper. i said "i'm c.............curious." see you later
After a couple of months getting to know ourselves as artists, unique individuals, and as students, we put our new Construction Paper Crayons to use on big black paper to create "Me Posters". Drawing and writing on a large scale, lettering, contrast, readability, composition, and working with mistakes were the challenges of the day. When kids finished quickly I walked across the room with their poster and asked if they needed to make any changes for it to be visible when hanging at a distance. The solutions were impressive and enthusiasm for working with mistakes is catching on... for some!
