5th/6th grade Castle Drawings
The 5th and 6th graders have been studying the Medieval time period in their Social Studies class.  For this project, the 5th and 6th graders looked at pictures of castles and drew their own castle using pencil and pens.  Then, they added watercolor washes to the picture.

Some of the students discovered that it looks really nice when the castle is left white.
