Kindergarten students are working on their own version of "Starry Night" by Vincent Van Gogh:

NEW YEAR, NEW ADVENTURES!

Fifth grade students are beginning the year with an artistic poem.  Each student will generate six adjectives describing him or her and will paint six different sections with custom colors.  They will then write in an adjective for each section forming the words to the shape of the section on the paper.  The students will begin their poems with "I am" and will write positive personality traits.

Geometric forms with second grade.  The students had a lot of fun with this project.  They were given one piece of paper, rulers, pencils, scissors and tape.  Students could work individually or in small groups to create geometric forms with one piece of paper.

Some of the fifth graders came during their free time to paint "Spring" themed paintings that will be used to raise money for a local charity.

Third grade "Expressionism" Self Portraits and Kindergarten Diggers and Dump Trucks

The third graders really enjoyed discovering the different colors they could mix with the primary colors.  After we finished painting the self portraits, the students participated in a "positive feedback" critique.

The kindergarten students used found objects to create shapes for dump trucks, excavators and other construction vehicles:

Color Wheel Fish and Geometric Shape Robots

Second grade students learned about the color wheel and mixed secondary colors with red, yellow, and blue.  After the fish were painted, they used blue and white to create a tint of blue for the water.  The last step will be to use black markers to create patterns on each fish.

The first grade students recently finished discussing and identifying geometric shapes.  After dancing to the robot song, students created a geometric shape robot with scraps of paper.  The robots were finished with markers.
