This is a project I did with some kids at Compass Public Charter School. The kids first learned about the Lascaux Cave paintings. I presented that information via a slide show. Prior to the lesson I created stencils for the younger grades so all they had to do was stencil. This was demonstrated to the kids prior to the start of the lesson. Once they had the outline, they added color;
I only put out the colors that would have been found on the cave walls during the time they were created. The images were done on brown paper bags, torn on the edges then placed over black construction paper to frame them, the edges were torn to give an antique look to them. The kids really enjoyed this lesson. This was taught at the elementary school level.
