Kindergarten aerial perspectives - lesson and terminology

Students reviewed "horizon line" from their previous assignment, and added "foreground", "middle ground", and "background" to their terminology. Students demonstrated knowledge of aerial perspective by lightening the "hue" to "tint" by adding white and placing smallest objects closest to the horizon line to create the illusion of depth. AND... they're adorable.
