I have done these adorable cows in the past with various background colors but this time I thought I would have the kids create ribbons for their cows. I had various colors for students to choose for their ribbons but they all choose to have blue
“1st place” ribbons!
Week One: Students drew out the cow and painted the shapes in with black paint.
Week Two: Students used scissors to cut out cows
then added ribbons.
Here is our inspiration from our local fair. What a beauty!
Materials: 12 x 18 white drawing paper, small brushes, black paint, oil pastels
Ribbons: 6 x 9 colored paper, sharpies
Background paper is 12 x 18 construction paper
Class time 40 minutes
