Kdg: Kinders are reviewing and continuing to practice different types of lines with their Silly Line People. We are about to dive into line direction and primary colors with projects inspired by Piet Mondrian.

| It doesn't get any cuter than this... |
1st: Firsties are identifying different types of art (portrait, landscape, still life) and are beginning their Self-Portraits! Stay tuned-- they. are. hilarious.
 |
| Learning about NOUNS in Art! |
2nd: After reading the book, Ish, by Peter H. Reynolds, 2nd grade artists are creating Ish pictures! We discussed how "ish" means almost. And sometimes we make art that doesn't look exactly like what we're trying to make it look like and thats okay! All of our art is Ish!
 |
| The creativity is bubbling over with these kids. |
3rd: Third graders are finishing up their Matisse Name Collages and are now moving onto Watercolor Technique Quilts. We will learn and practice 6 techniques such as crayon resist, wet-on-wet, and gradient wash.
 |
| Please note-- the burger. Love. |
 |
| AND PIZZA. |
4th: After many messy days, the fourth graders are finishing up their Value Crayons. The students are having a great time working together and using tones, tints, and shades (ask them about the song!) to create more realistic-looking crayons.
5th: Fifth graders are learning about linear perspective in Art. Linear perspective is used to create depth and the illusion of space in a 2D work. Our way of practicing One-Point perspective is through our Name Landscape projects. This is a TOUGH concept for anyone, but the students are really persevering and making great progress. Pictures to come :)
