To my astonishment, they turned out AWESOME! And, I was completely baffled by two of the boys who did this project...in art class, they usually aren't what I would consider my star students. They tend to cause drama and be trouble makers because they are "bored". They did AMAZING on their oil pastel drawings! I think I might have embarrassed them from all the praise I gave them! In fact, one of them asked me, "Mrs. Impey, this isn't going to count for my grade is it?" No, but, I told him, lucky for you, our next unit in 4th grade will be making poinsettia clay bowls and then doing an oil pastel close-up drawing of a poinsettia. He was incredibly HAPPY at this news...even though I told him we would be drawing flowers!
When they finished, I pulled out the "masters frames" that I purchased this year and let them attach them to the frames. Of course, I played a little favoritism and let the two below put their drawings in a real mat...

These are the two I'm talking about! Both done in different styles...but both amazing! The red one was done by a 4th grader, and the other by a 5th grader.
Another awesome drawing by a 5th grader.
