http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kZTsbJcr9VIMy fourth grades will draw city scapes at night for their next project. We are learning how to show value. We will show value through the moonlight of the night sky. Each student has the option to create his/her own imaginary cityscape, or copy a famous city scape. Here are a few cityscapes that I plan to show in class:

My fifth graders are working on an artwork that conveys an emotion. They are using subject matter and color to evoke the intended emotion. Here are some sample artworks that I will show to help them brainstorm:
