A Big Thank You to the 8th Grade Class!




The art room has two new additions that will be of great use. The 8th grade class gave the art room these as gifts before they graduated and go off to high school. The portable display screen will be used for shows in the school and outside the school. The metal drying rack can fit 50 sheets of paper to dry undisturbed. Much needed, and much appreciated. THANK YOU.

Expressive Suns



 
In second grade we watch a video on how to draw different emotions. The students used what they learned and make suns with an emotion of their choice. I thought it would be a good way to bring in the summer. The students used black crayons and tempera paint.

Flowers from K2


 
Spring is time for flowers to bloom. The K2 class started by drawing with oil pastels then painting over with tempera. Next they used their cutting skills to cut out the petals for the flower. The next class they each got a white cardboard circle they filled with spots drawn with washable markers. Water was added to blend the dots and see what colors they can make. Once the students glued it all together the room was filled with colorful flowers.
