Wesley This brown is like red. Wesley uses the sponge to circle around his green earth, then he covers his green with blue. There is dirt, the color of dirt.
Dab, dab, dab…it leaves a texture – Julia. I like mine smooth – Ruthie
The brown is the dirt, and yellow is the sand and the green is some grass and the blue on the top, that is the sky – Amelia. Later Amelia returns to add white – there’s a lot of snow on mine!
Ruthie I’m making the shore around it, around the ocean. Now the desert part now, that’s brown. That’s my earth!
