Fifth Grade - October 10, 2012

I love this new project that we began today.  We are drawing our own treasure maps.  Their creativity is amazing!!  We will finish drawing the details next time, and we will add some colored pencil to our maps.  Then we will finish them off by using liquid watercolor.  These are amazing!!  I cannot wait to post them on the website!!!  Be watching for them in a few weeks.

Sixth Grade - October 10, 2012

Today was fantastic!!!  We began drawing our castles.  They are so great!!  I can hardly wait to finish them!  This will be a long project because we will finish the drawing next time.  Then we will color them with colored pencils.  They are going to be really excited to show you this project when they bring home their projects at the end of the year.  Sorry, it will take so long to share this project.  Look for some of the finished work on this blog when they are completed.

Third Grade

We began a line drawing of a hot air balloon today.  We finished drawing the hot air balloon and the basket of the hot air balloon.  Next time we will add the designs.  We will also add bright colors to our balloons.  They are fantastic!  I cannot wait to have the children add the color.  Come back to see our results in a few weeks!

First Grade Turtles

Today we began line drawings of a turtle.  We drew a turtle together, and we divided the shell into different sections.  Within each part of the shell, every child drew their own different designs.  They are fabulous, and I loved watching their creativity!  Next time we will add color to the designs.  You will love the turtles!!

Fourth Grade

It was fantastic to be back with fourth grade!  We watched and talked about a powerpoint with the rules and procedures for the school year.  We wrote our names on our portfolios.  We will keep our work at school, and it will come home at the end of the year.  We also designed a quarter of a circle.  Everyone in the school will be included in our circle mural.  I cannot wait for you to see their creativity!

Second Grade

Second grade was so excited to be back in the art room.  Many said they remembered me from last year.  I love their honesty and innocence!  We talked and viewed a powerpoint with the rules and procedures for the new year.  We wrote our names on the portfolios we will use this year. These will come home at the end of the year like last year.  Everyone added their design to a quarter of a circle.  These will be joined together for a school wide circle mural.  I love their creativity!

Fifth Grade

I love seeing familiar faces when they come back to the art room!  We viewed a powerpoint with the rules and the procedures for the new year.  Everyone wrote their names on their portfolios.  These will come home with all of their artwork at the end of the school year.  We also decorated 1/4 of a circle for a circle mural.  Everyone that comes to art will contribute to our circle mural.  Watch for it!
