Cave Drawings



 


 First grade students learned about some of the first artwork ever made; cave paintings! Students took a virtual tour of the cave at Lascaux, looked at photos of the cave paintings, and read the book, "The Cave Painter of Lascaux" by Roberta Angeletti.  Then students tore the edges off of their brown paper, crumpled it up, and then smoothed it out, to make a surface similar to a cave wall. The next time students came to art, the room had transformed into a cave. Students taped their papers to tables that were turned on their side, and drew their own versions of the cave paintings.
