December Art Projects

Kindergarten has finished painting their textured kitties with watercolor paint. First grade made 3D animal cards. The mouths open when you open the card. Some are adorned with feathers. Second grade is finishing their symmetrical buildings and 3D paper playgrounds. What great creations they have. Third grade is beginning their Symphony in Color artwork. They are drawing musical instruments. We are going to draw the violins, color them, cut them in slices and reassemble them. Fourth grade is beginning an abstract work to go with West Side Story "Meeting Scene" and "Cool', ' Fugue". We are going to demonstrate the contrasts between the slow and fast tempos of the two pieces.
