week twenty . . . and more painting

 

The  students use a round, ten well. paint palette to learn how to use painting materials and to paint.  I am the one that distributes the paint.  They each get their own palette and I encourage them (require them) to "set up" their painting supplies the same way each time.  It is a way to keep them organized, and to give them a steady structure while working with materials that can easily become REALLY messy in the art room.
