Michelangelo Hands
2nd grade learned about the Renaissance artists. For Michelangelo, the students took a virtual tour of the Sistine Chapel and learned about how the artist painted the ceiling using various rafters. The students then taped a piece of paper underneath their desks and used a reference sheet to draw the hands. They soon found out how difficult it was to draw from below their work! Still, the students enjoyed the break from their chairs and will always remember this master artist who accomplished so much.
