Kandinsky Influenced Trees

What a great project for the 5th graders! Not only are they learning about a historical artist, but they get to use recycled materials, paint and draw abstract circles. Art couldn't be more interesting!

Our inspirational artist:
Wassily Kandinsky
Known as the father of Abstract Art
Famous for his concentric circles











Now what we are creating in class:

 
 

IT'S ALIVE!!!

No, it's just 3 dimensional!

2nd graders building magic monsters from Magic Nuudles!
Along with their monsters they will be creating a biography about where they come from and what they do.

MAKING ART LIKE THE CAVEMEN!

Cave Paintings in 3rd Grade

In this unit, Ms. Callie our students teacher, has discovered the idea to create art just like cavemen did over 20,000 years ago! However, we don't have caves, so we had to improvise and use our tables. 


 Students are focusing on historical art and how we can draw pictures to tell stories, just like the cavemen! What a fun and unique way to make art!

4th Grade Lines in Motion

Focusing on the Principles of Design: Movement and Rhythm 

Fourth graders are focusing on lines in motion to display a moving subject through a variety of lines, shapes and patterns. Today we practiced in our sketchbooks and next we will be making lines in motion using pictures of ourselves. I can't wait to see the results!
