Hello 2nd graders,
I hope you are all healthy and well. And getting outside in this amazing sunny weather!
This week in art you are going to make hand shadow puppets!
What are shadow puppets, you ask...they are images that are projected on a wall that you make when a light is placed by your hands and your hands cast a shadow on that wall. When you make your hands into certain shapes you can cast a shadow that looks like a dog, a bird, a duck....it's pretty cool and fun to do at night before bedtime.
You can just mess around with hand shadow puppets and see what you can make on your own, you can look at the above examples and give them a try, you can watch the three videos I have posted below, or you can do all three. Whatever works for you!
This is the first video and gives a great introduction to making hand shadow puppets.
