After reading Oliver Jeffers' "How to Catch a Star" we created these beautiful watercolour paintings. First we painted the watercolour paper with water. Next we used an eye dropper to drip blue and turquoise liquid watercolour paint on the paper. The colours mixed and pooled together. Next we sprinkled some coarse salt on the paper. When the paint was dry we brushed the salt off and noticed that where the salt was, the colour is different. Finally we learned how to draw a star on yellow construction paper and then worked really hard to cut it out. We glued the star on our night sky. This art inspired us to write about how we would go about catching a star!
