This project was created using tissue paper, glue, oil pastels, and a metallic Sharpie. The idea was to create our own version of Starry Night by Van Gogh, with a skyline of our choosing. The tissue paper was cut into swirls and glued down. The trees were cut out of construction paper. After everything was laid out and glued, I took a coat of clear adhesive to give the complete project the shine.
An extension activity I would do with this project would be to study the night sky through the use of photography and film. The Northern Lights along with a full moon's glow to a cloudy night with only the stars out. It's a great unit if a class were studying Earth's orbit or the moon phases.
