The Kitah Alef children have been exploring different mediums and methods of painting. During a recent Art class the children were presented with an experience where they could paint with balls. The small slide was covered with a long piece of cardboard and the children took turns rolling and throwing a variety of small balls on the cardboard. Morah Jessica squeezed different colors of washable paint onto the cardboard for the balls to roll through, leaving tracks behind.
Some of the children opted to throw the balls up the slide instead. In these instances, a small amount of paint was squeezed onto the balls before they were thrown. A few children had their own unique methods. Adira pressed and rolled her ball on the cardboard to make prints.
Dahlia decided to throw the ball without paint!
