Look Inside a House

2nd grade discussed the types of rooms a house may have inside, as well as items that could be outside the building.  Then students drew a multiple room home, including furniture and appliances to identify the type of room, be it a kitchen, a bathroom, a bedroom, or a playroom for example.

Peeking Bunny

2nd grade drew a large bunny peeking onto their paper.  They used crayons to add dots or "eggs" onto their background, coloring hard to make it wax resistant for when they brushed a thin layer of watercolor paint on top.  

 

 

 

Frog in a Pond

2nd grade drew, and colored, a value frog using only shades of green.  They glued their frog onto a pond themed background paper they designed, along with some pesty flies.

 

 

Celebrating Black History

For our school wide Black History Night, all students created artwork that was displayed in our hallways.    

Kindergarteners were given a crown, based off artwork by Jean-Michel Basquiat, to color and draw around.

 

 

 

1st grade glued paper squares in a radiating pattern to assemble artwork inspired by Alma Thomas.

 

2nd, 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade students chose an African American to write about in their classroom.  Then during art, students practice portioning the human face before creating portraits of their chosen person.
