Next week we are celebrating Earth Day. So for a fun art activity Ms. Wasney had us do something really fun!! We took a cookie sheet and covered it in shaving cream. Yes, shaving cream! Then Ms. Wasney drizzled different shades of green and blue paint on top of the shaving cream. With a spoon she dragged the colors to make a pretty cool design. With the help of my buddy Aria, we put a plain piece of paper on top of the shaving cream and gently pushed down to cover the entire piece of paper with the shaving cream and paint. When we thought it was all covered we dragged the paper off to one side to smear all the color over the paper. We had to let the paint and shaving cream set for 5 minutes before we took a squeegee and removed the excess paint.
When it dried it left the most amazing design on my paper!! We cut a circle out of the paper and it looked just like the planet earth from up in space. With a red heart we left a message on our project. My message was "Recycle and reuse as much as you can!" We all chose something from our hearts to make sure that we take care of our planet. This activity really shows how we all support Earth Day and how we want to keep our planet.
