First Grade Tree Houses

We are about half-way through our tree house project.  Today we worked on the actual tree house.  Our focus was making a house structure (a simple one since it is a tree house) and how to make it look like it was made from old wood (nails and crooked wood boards). 

I especially love the signs that were put onto the tree houses.  These were drawn on paper that they had water-colored the week before.  Next week we will finish up our backgrounds and trees and add a few embellishments to complete these.
