I try to apply colors like words that shape poems, like notes that shape music.
Joan Miro, November Artist-of-the-month
PK & Kinder – Mrs. Barrientos
Our rainbow fish are very cute! We are currently working on a tissue paper collage. They are practicing gluing squares of different colors of tissue paper into a printed elephant.
We will be talking about fall colors and working on our fine skills by tearing pieces of construction paper and putting together a collage of different colors in our cornucopias for Thanksgiving.
I hope you are enjoying your children’s art project as I am enjoying working with them.
3rd & 4th Grade – Mrs. Connelly
After discussing Abstract Expressionism and Surrealism and looking at artwork by Joan Miro and Wassily Kandinsky, students practiced drawing images in the style of Miro and Kandinsky. Students will also put the finishing touches on their ancient coins. Thanksgiving is just around the corner so students will be starting projects that have a Thanksgiving theme.
