Sneak Peek at the Spring Art Show

Kindergarten "Water Lilies" inspired by Monet


Another "Water-Lily"


2nd Grade- Insect Yarn Painting




1st Grade-Woven houses in a setting that includes a garden setting.
 The kids and I are busily finishing our artworks for the upcoming spring art show, so I thought I'd give you a peek- nothing is finished yet- this is all in progress, but I think it's going to be a great show.  Our theme is gardening, because the music teacher will be presenting a program on the same night, and his program is about gardens. Anyway- this is the little ones- I'll show off the 3rd and 4th graders another post.

Here Fishy Fishy Fishy

Mr E- check out her Turtle!!!

The music teacher is doing a program with 1st and 2nd grade students.  He asked if I could come up with a mask so that all participating students could feel included. My kiddos sure do love a good mask, and this one had lots of skills included, such as drawing and cutting (for the fish) sculpting, paint application techniques, and even a touch of collage.  The music teacher is delighted, and so are the kids. I am pleased with the detail and marker work students gave to the fish.  What parent won't be delighted to see their student performing in these? Amazing that it started with 1/2 of a paper plate per person!
