As we walked around our school yard we noticed that the leaves are changing colours!  Students described the colours they saw and noticed that different trees have different coloured leaves. We also noticed that there are leaves on the trees, leaves on the ground, and leaves swirling in the air!

This inspired us to paint fall trees to show the colour and movement of leaves.

First, we drew long, tall trunks and some branches with crayons and pastels. Then, we used tinfoil to stamp the leaves.
