Flower Power!

This is a project including tracing, watercolors, cutting and putting together. We first learned four different types of watercolor strokes which was included in on our lei. We then traced out 24 flowers to be laced on our lei. To make the lei, you tie a loop at on end, then place a flower by the loop, then a straw, then another flower, etc. An extention activity would include talking about the many different flowers. Each student could make a different flower and research their flower. The students could model/present their flower to the class and inform them with it. This would improve their writing skills and inform them of a new concept with still incorporating art skills.
