1st graders have been learning to draw animals using shapes. Then learning about cool and warm colors. They used cool colors to outline and warm watercolors to paint.
2nd graders are working on collaged Jack-in-the-box characters. They are collaging snowflakes, scrap paper and working on a winter/holiday theme.
Our 3rd, 4th, 5th graders have been talking about the studio habit "envision". Envision: I can learn to mentally picture the next steps in my work. Many have been working with a winter/holiday theme and developing their skills with sculpture and chalk pastels.
