Good Morning!
 
Welcome back. I hope you all enjoyed your Fall Break. This week K-6 are starting a new specials rotation! 
 
What's on the Docket for this week?
 
Kinder - Starting a new rotation. I will now have Ms. Lubang's Advocacy class. We will start off our art adventure creating our contributions to the school mural inspired by Thank You X, an LA-based street artist. Then we will round out our week by completing our first project - Our Rainbow Self Portraits. Students will learn about different types of lines and colors to create the background for their self-portraits and attach their faces after our backgrounds are dry. 
 
1st Grade - Starting a new rotation. I will now have Mrs. Koenig's Advocacy class. We will start off our art adventure creating our contributions to the school mural inspired by Thank You X, an LA-based street artist. We will then round out our week by talking about lines and patterns, while creating a Farm Landscape demonstrating what we learned. 
 
3rd/4th - Starting a new rotation. I will now have Ms. Papiernik's Advocacy class. We will start off our art adventure creating our contributions to the school mural inspired by Thank You X, an LA-based street artist. Using their prior knowledge of the human facial proportions, students will then set to work designing the covers for our sketchbooks, by creating their own original character. 
 
5th/6th - Starting a new rotation. I will now have Mrs. Lounsbury's Advocacy class. We will start off our art adventure creating our contributions to the school mural inspired by Thank You X, an LA-based street artist. Using their prior knowledge of the human facial proportions, students will then set to work designing the covers for our sketchbooks, by creating their own original character. 
 
7th/8th - This week students are starting their new specials rotation for Quarter 2. This quarter will be all about Painting and different materials/techniques we can use to create with paint. This week, students will start with a small assignment to begin their sketchbook covers. Then we will move on to our first project, focusing on the art of Illustration through fairytales and folktales spanning history. 
 
As always, if you have any questions or concerns, please contact me! Have a fantastic week!
