Good Morning!

 

Happy Monday. I hope you all enjoyed your long weekend! 

 

What's on the Docket for this week?

 

Kinder - This week, Kindergarten will jump into our next element of art, value. Value is the use of lightness and darkness within an artwork, whether black and white or tints and shades of a color.  We will be creating a winter scene utilizing value to show shadows. 

 

2nd Grade - This week, students will be delving into patterns and how to create and use patterns in art. We will be making 2 small drawings, that will contrast each other on where there is a pattern and where there is color. 

 

3rd/4th—This week, we are finalizing our self-portraits, by creating background frames for them. Once completed, we will start on our pop art painting project. 

 

5th/6th—This week, we are jumping into painting our self-portrait project inspired by the work of Pop Artist Roy Lichenstein. Students will be working in reverse, starting with the details and ending with the full-color backgrounds. 

 

7th/8th - This week, students will be working on calculating the scale of their cardboard sculpture as well as starting to create the skeleton of their project.
