Update

Greetings from the art room,

The filter at school blocks this site so I have to update from home. I may not get to update as much as I had hoped to. I wanted to post a few more examples of the students artwork for the magnets. Fourth grade used their hands as the beginning of great designs. I think they are coming out really nice!

A few more Self Portraits

Update

Hello there,

It's been a really good week. We are still working on our magnet designs. We are using basic design principals as well as meeting some of the Virginia Standards of Learning in Art. The children will be making a few different designs, sending their favorite in to become a magnet. Some of the older children are working so hard and putting great details into their designs. They may only have one ready. I will post a few photos of third grade self-portraits. I thought they did a really nice job on these....

Have a great week,

Ms. Mellott

In the swing of things....

Greetings,
It's week two and we are all getting back into our routine. Everyone enjoyed the long weekend. All the classes except for kindergarten are working on designs for the "Square 1" magnets. The children are doing a super job. Kindergarten will be doing self portraits. This is our first attempt at tracing and cutting. I was VERY impressed with the class I had yesterday. As we finish the self portraits I will be hanging them out in the hallway. I will also post a photo of one or two on here. Check back, I'll be updating whenever I get a chance.
