The Pequenakonck Elementary School 5th grade students learned about how Vincent van Gogh created his works of art by using both value as well as a variety of constructive and expressive lines. After studying these famous drawings, the 5th grade students each chose their own U.S. landscape or landmark to recreate in van Gogh`s style. Once the students picked the best line to represent their space, they learned how to add value to the object by putting the lines closer together or create depth by reducing the sizes of the lines. Finally, each student wrote a haiku poem as a supplement to his or her beautiful landscape drawing.
