Our 5th graders are integrating art into their science vocabulary lessons. Teachers, great job keeping the learning interesting and engaging for these budding scientists.
We're ready to show off some more art work from our 2nd & 3rd graders. 2nd grade learned a little about Vincent van Gogh's sunflower paintings then created a mixed media collage using tempera paint, watercolors and crayons .
3rd grade learned how to draw sea turtles and paint them using warm and cool colors. They learned about a watercolor technique using salt on wet watercolors to create the ocean background.
It just makes our day that we have so many positive referrals rolling in. These kids continue to be great role models and we couldn't be more proud.
