Hello Class, We will continue to work on our graffiti fences this week. Most likely, we will finish by Friday, but we can also take a few extra days to complete them. We will use paint pens to draw and color in our names, starting with the back layer and working our way to the top. Once you have finished your name, you will create the base for your project. There is no homework this week, so enjoy!
