3rd Grade Circle Weavings

Inspired by the Circle art of Sonia and Robert Delaunay, students first painted their plate with concentric circles. They had the primary colors and white and black, so all additional colors were created by the student. Once completed, we transformed our circle weavings into looms! The students did an amazing job weaving and just loved this experience! 

World Kindness Day!

Several classes worked on a collaborative project to help one another to practice kindness. These collaborative circle paintings require students share space, collaborate on ideas and compromise. We discussed what acts of kindness we saw at the end of class. Students were creative, had tons of fun and practiced spreading kindness. Happy World Kindness Day!! Be kind. Pass it on...

Independent 6th grade artwork...

These students are designing a work of art entirely of their own choosing. This fosters creative thinking, envisioning, reflecting, expressing, engaging and collaboration. The quiet hum of the art room as they explore their BIG idea is evidence of their critical thinking skills as they overcome challenges, modify their idea and persevere. Here are a few works in progress:

Mandalas

4th grade mandalas are progressing nicely. Here are some nearing completion.
