Kindergartners are learning about spring! They stamped grass, and flowers with stems and leaves. They used found objects like spools, corks, and marker caps. To make the grass they used the side of a piece of cardboard. They even used what they learned earlier in the year and created some clouds with sponge stamping. Here are a few finished products.
2nd graders sculpted animals using clay. Here is what they looked like before they were glazed! After they were fired students glazed them with either realistic colors or colors influenced by Oaxaca wood sculptures. Here are some examples of the Oaxaca animals that we looked at:
The cutting and gluing! The finished houses! They turned out so well they just had to be displayed around the school. There is a display in the library and in the front lobby.
Kindergartners learned how to fold, roll, cut, make tabs, and glue paper into a 3 dimensional playground. They made slides, tunnels, sandboxes, swings, monkey bars, tree houses, and much more!
After practicing how to cut out a deciduous and and evergreen tree, 1st grade students created a personal winter landscape collage. Next, we used our new skills to create a large mural together.
Fourth graders chose a region of Virginia to inspire them for a cut paper collage. Students used cutting techniques like layering, punching, tearing, and overlapping. They also had to show depth some how in their picture with a foreground, middle ground, and background.
