WARM AND COOL COLOURS

Warm colours are red, yellows and oranges. Cool colours are blues, greens and purples.

5th grade choose warm or cool colours to create an African sunset or a night in the North Pole. They draw an animal silhouette, paint the paper warm or cool colours (mixing paint and water), let they paper dry and paint the silhouette black.

They did an amazing job!
