December Recap 

Many exciting things happened in the Art Room during the month of December! 
The Rich Rascals, the kindergarten group having art during the second trimester of this school year, completed a collaborative elf project that would impress even Will Farrell! Every student decorated a life size replica of themselves as an elf with the help of a second grade buddy. They began by using marker to add some colorful patterns to their paper cut out, then they chose outfits to dress their elf in and finished the design with pom poms and other fabulous embellishments. Each student loved the opportunity to work with a partner and was incredibly proud of their creation!

In first grade the students work diligently for three class times on some incredible gingerbread house sculptures. We began with simple brown paper bags which magically became beautifully decorated three dimensional masterpieces. 

Many of the decorations were donated by the first grade parents and all of the children benefited from your generosity. Thank you!

Second graders began the month by making a three dimensional grasshopper, which was completed as the students where studying the insect with their classroom teachers. Next we moved on to creating a seasonal ornament. The students experimented with lines and patterns while using "slick paint". Our focus is always on identifying the elements of art in each project, while enjoying the creative process. We wrapped up the month with each class creating headbands to wear to the PBIS assembly.
