Don't you just love it when their eyes light up when they have discovered a new magical art material! Here's a new take on a scratch art extension lesson that just gives them that "aha!" feeling.
Right before this lesson we worked with our traditional scratch art boards and tools enjoying the gold paper that shines through when scratching away the black surface. Now they learned how to make their own scratch art surface, while I snuck in some art history on Jasper Johns and little color theory! Sneaky, sneaky art teacher! 
It really is a very simple project, but with a very beautiful final product. I love fourth grade!
