First grade - Buses

In first grade we talked about what we could do to improve a boring yellow bus.... they had great ideas! Check this one out!

Second Grade - Shapes

This week in art second grade was working with geometric shapes. They chose a shape and then echoed that shape with three other colors. They colored them in neatly and repeated the process to fill up the space. They learned about overlapping while doing the process. What great designs, love them!

In kindergarten this week we made schoolbuses. We used shapes to create our bus. We learned about circles, squares and rectangles. We even talked about colors. What a great job for our very first art project!
