This week the 1st graders are studying Claude Monet and his famous lily pond paintings. They used watercolors and acrylic paint to create mystical ponds with Impressionistic flair. Next week we will create bridges in our landscape.
2nd grade has been working on Winter Bird and Birch tree collages. We studied the beautiful bark of a birch tree and looked at winter birds in their habitats. Painted paper was used to make the colorful birds.
Kindergarten has been observing fish bowls and drawing from life. They did contour line drawings of fish using markers (no erasing!) and added a layer of tissue paper for water.
