3rd Grade Musical Collab Projects

Our 3rd graders recently preformed a musical with our music teacher about Lewis and Clark. PTA asked if I could have each 3rd grade class do a painting within the theme of the musical. I had them do a small part of a mountain landscape to go with the theme. They then auctioned each piece off to the parents and raised $200.00! What a great way to involve our school families with our PTA.

5th Grade "The Scream"

Each fifth grade student got a piece of "The Scream" by Edvard Munch. They duplicated their portion of the painting on a large 12 by 12 square in oil pastel. I then hot glued each piece onto a large black piece of paper and cut out the face of "The Scream" I hung it from the ceiling. The students where able to stick their faces through the scream and took pictures as if they were apart of the artwork. Great addition for the Halloween month and super fun for the whole school. 


Novembers Artist of the Month

Sammy is a first grade student. She is a joy to have in class and she has shown great growth and improvement in her artistic skills this early in the semester. She participates in classroom discussions and is very quick to come to the rescue when another classmate needs help.
