Kindergarten Art

The Kindergarten class had two classes to explore all the various materials and techniques they have learned this year with our last project. They had the opportunity to use several materials including watercolor paint, oil pastels, colored pencils, glue, paper and markers. I am always impressed with the retention of information from the beginning of the school year and enjoyed watching them experiment with the combination of materials. The final pieces are full of color, beautiful mark making and energetic! They enjoyed creating "free form" as one student called it and wanted to have an extra class to continue working on their pieces. I appreciate the ability to adjust the class plans to the needs of the students and I know the students greatly benefit from the flexibility in their creative education. We will begin a sculpture unit this week that will be at least two weeks long.
