4th, 5th and 6th Grade Art

What a productive, creative and successful week we had in art! The students really focused on their work, made great progress and really enjoyed the final results of their efforts. The 5th and 6th grade students had a lesson on the use and care of utility knives and learned not only the safe way to use the tool, but how to take the knife apart and change the blade. I am not quite ready for the 4th grade students to use the knives, so they were content to cut their pieces with scissors. The 1 point perspective pieces and process were successful in teaching value, color theory, tool use and contrast.

Plus they look really great and the students are so excited to share them. I have hung the work in the large gallery space, try to stop in and see them if you are in the school.
