Mrs. Borchert's last lesson with kindergarteners was an oil pastel resist. Students designed their own city scene by drawing or tracing geometric shapes. The buildings were colored with large Crayola oil pastels. In the next class, she read Peter H. Reynold's "Sky Color" (one of my favorites). In the story, the main character faces the problem of having to paint the sky in a mural without any blue paint. She solves the issue by creating a unique, dream-like sky. Students used tempera discs to paint over their scene and add their own colorful skies.
