Reach for the Stars – Back to School Bulletin Board

I hope you are enjoying your first few weeks back to school!   Here is a Reach for the Stars bulletin board my students made as their first art projects.

Back to School bulletin board

The tape letters were made by 1st graders.  I don’t know how people use painter’s tape for this technique, because it just caused my paper to rip.  I discovered the Post-it Label Roll which worked great to block out the letters. The kids painted over the label tape with a crayon resist method and then the tape easily peeled off without ripping the paper.

The stars were made by the Kindergarteners.

Collage Hands

The collage hands were made by the 3rd/4th grade class.  They traced their hands and then cut out magazine pictures and drew things that they liked or represented themselves.
