About this School Project (2nd: Self Portraits!)
Students worked on creating more realistic self portraits by looking in the mirror at their eye shape, hair styles, skin color and hair color. We celebrated identity and that our skin tones were all different. Students blended their skin colors with Crayola’s Colors of the World Crayons, which features 24 different skin tone crayons. I told students to color on a separate piece of paper or blend 2 crayons together and match it to their hands. We finished the backgrounds focusing on patterns with one color marker.
