I am so far behind. I really had good intentions to post weekly, but that obviously is not working. I am now going to play catch up and post pictures fir the last few weeks. I think I will then post as things happen.

Here is a look at kindergarten. We made school buses cutting squares and rectangles. We made scarecrows. This time we tore our paper instead of cutting. Our latest project was Five Little Pumpkins sitting on a gate.

Now things are really starting to get interesting.  We are so busy in art class.  Students are busy finishing up projects and starting new projects. The art work keeps coming in.  I love sharing my students' art work, and I am very proud of their accomplishments.

Kindergarten students had "apple week" in their regular classroom, and they did a lot of different activities and lessons about apples.  We created our own apples.  We cut apples from paper plates, drew on some seeds, cut out a leave and a stem, and then painted the apple with a sponge.

First Grade:  I wanted to share some more circle in a circle projects. 

We also made apple mobiles in first grade. These were very tricky as we had to cut two of each apple in order to get the yarn to go through the center of the apples.  

Second grade students missed art this week as they were on a field trip.  Photos are still on their way to show off their shining starts.  

Third Grade students started a new project involving a fish with organic shaped scales.  In the mean time, here are some more hand print patterns:

Here are some more fourth grade hand print patterns:

We have been so busy in art, and I am behind in posting.  Here is a look at the last week:

Kindergarten students have been practicing making shapes.  We cut squared out of primary color construction paper and glued them onto the first letter of our names.

 


First Grade Students completed drawing a circle in a circle.  Second grade students finished their starts and then painted over it with watercolor.  We learned about watercolor resist.

First Grade

 Third and Fourth Grade students traced their hands and added different patterns to every space.

Grade 3

 Fifth and Sixth grade students completed their spinning wheel projects by painting a watercolor wash.  They were then having a bad hair day. They drew faces and added crazy hair using different patterns.

Seventh and Eighth Grade students completed their puzzle projects and have started a Mask Collage. They each chosen a famous person and are completing a mask by tearing and gluing paper over the picture.
