Kindergarten's Lascaux, TGS
Kindergarteners learned about the earliest known cave drawings in Lascaux, France (which, scientists believe, were made by female artists) and looked at the colors, symbols, and animals represented in these drawings. Students created their own cave-like drawing surface by crumpling brown craft paper until it was soft and wrinkled, then drew some of the symbols and animals they observed on the walls of the cave in Lascaux using white, black, ochre, and brown pastels.
