As we move, skip, dance and twirl into the end of the year here are some of the projects to keep our CSDA wolves engaged in their last classes of art for the year!
4th and 5th grade Coral Reefs: We had an author/ illustrator visit this Wednesday, Jason Chin, from Burlington, VT. Take a look at his work here: http://jasonchin.net/
Mr. Chin illustrated and wrote a book: Coral Reefs which inspired us to create our own coral reef paintings. We created a cool color background and added warm colors for the coral. Adding the animal was very fun and we were able to study how to draw different animals that live in the coral reef.
Coral Reef display, all classes combined!
Mrs. Gagne is already thinking about next school year! All 5th and 6th Graders painted murals to welcome us back to school next year. This was a huge hit with the kiddos!
4th Grade Teacher Portraits: What a way to say goodbye to our classroom teachers and review the measurements of facial features. Portraits are tricky because we always like to make them look "realistic". Mrs. Gagne likes to remind her kiddos that it's okay to make it your way, we have camera for "perfect pictures" to capture people. It's WAY more fun to draw it your way and in your style!
