Inspired by Matisse- Third and Fourth Grade Collages

Third and fourth grade artists looked at examples of collages by Henri Matisse.  


We also watched two short videos about Matisse.  The first is a collection of Matisse's collages with a song by Greg Percy.  The second is a beautiful clip of Matisse working with paper cutouts. 




Students chose themes based on the collages and began working with colorful paper scraps.
