Coloring order
- Color the red rock face carved with Petra's Treasury in orange and red-brown first, lighter toward the top and deeper below.
- Paint the row of columns across the front and the triangular roof above them in pale peach so they stand apart from the cliff.
- Finally, fill the dark doorway in the middle, the round-roofed part above it and the small carvings between the columns in dark brown.
Questions to talk about
- This building was cut into rock. How do you think people made it?
- What might be inside that dark doorway if you walked in?
- Have you ever rested in the shade of a big rock? How did it feel?
Take it further
Cut a big orange paper cliff face, glue on white folded-paper columns in a row, and add a black paper door in the middle.
