Vincent Van Gogh Starry Night

This was a lesson done by Cassandra Mraz. We learned a little bit about the painting Starry Night by Vincent Van Gogh. Each student got a square from the painting Starry Night. First we sketched what our piece looked like on a piece of paper using a pencil. Then we matched our sketches up with the other squares to see how close they matched up. When all of ours matched up, we painted our piece of the picture. The main point of this lesson was using correct brush strokes and the right colors to match the square we received.

An extension activity for this lesson could be using other types of crayons or colored pencils to create this picture. You can try to incorporate strokes by using crayons or colored pencils.
