Tootsie Roll by Ethan F. - Grade: 5
With the excitement of the change of season, comes one of Rumney students' favorite holidays, Halloween. Some kids even admitted that it ranks right up there with Christmas. So to capitalize on the holiday and knowing the next lesson I would teach to fifth and sixth grade artists was realistic drawing, I asked them to save and bring to class a wrapper from one of their favorite candies or treats. They sketched an initial drawing in pencil practicing techniques such as looking at where things were in relationship to each other, noticing what basic shapes within the wrapper and shading. They also practiced drawing thee letters and various creases and folds of the wrapper. Students used Prismacolor colored pencils to get realistic and vibrant colors to finish their work.
