Making trees

In Room 3 today, the class are being taught how to make very awesome trees that Livvy and Charlie learnt at an art course. Livvy and Charlie are our teachers for this lesson.

Livvy and Charlie giving us our first instructions
To make this awesome tree, this is what will be needed. Get 4 or 5 different colors of dye, newspaper, a plain piece of white paper, a vivid and some crayons.
This table is dying blue it looks like fun!
First we dyed our whole piece of paper.

This is Charlie, Josh, Lorenzo and Livvy dying paper






Secondly, we started to draw a tree that fills the page bottom to top.

Once everyone was done, get a piece of newspaper and fill it up with leaves (they can't be to big). After the leaves fill up the page, put patterns in all the leaves on the newspaper.

Then get a crayon and color half of the leaf in and then get the same color dye that the crayon was and color the other half in with the dye.

Once that's done that get the same piece of paper that was dyed first and draw a tree on it with black paint and once you have done that start to stick the leafs on and then its done.

P.S. wait for it to dry enjoy :)
