Lesson 10: Little Red Riding Hood Mixing Brown Paint
Instructions: Read the poem below. What happened to Red and Grandma?
Look at the wolf in the painting "Little Red Riding Hood and the Wolf in the Forest" by Carl Larsson. First, mix red and yellow paint to make orange paint. Then mix in a little blue to make brown paint. Use the brown paint to paint the shaggy brown fur of a wolf.
Little Red's mom,
Was far from calm,
Because Red's dear grandma was ill.
Mom said, "take grandma a cake,
"But be wary a fake,
For the woods brim with treacherous creatures."
"Please don't fret," said Red,
"I have a good head",
"And my red hood will shield it from danger."
But Red was distracted,
By a bad wolf who acted,
Like the smarmiest, charmiest fellow in the world.
