Watercolor Lei's

First she reviewed the different types of watercolor painting and then we practiced those. Once that was done, we began using those techniques to create a painting of our own using 2 of the ways shown. We then cut out 24 flowers, using at least 4-5 from watercolor painting. Once they were cut out, we punched holes in the middle and put straws to separate them, creating a lei.

**An extension activity for this lesson could be used in geography.  The students would have to find out where on the Hawaiian Islands these flowers grow, and then map them on a map of the islands.
