First Grade: Making Clay

The first grade worked together to make their own clay (play-doh).  The students measured and mixed ingredients together to make primary-colored clay.  The next class, each student choose what secondary color they would like to make and what two primary colors they needed to mix together.  After mixing the clay, students spent the remaining of class making sculptures.

First Grade: Wayne Thiebaud

The first grade and I had a lot of fun looking at artist Wayne Thiebaud's food paintings and making our own artwork inspired by Thiebaud's gumball machine paintings.  Plus, it was a good opportunity to review our primary/secondary colors and warm/cool colors.

Pre-K, 1st, 7th, and 8th grade put their art projects on pause and took the time to make Valentines for our Veterans last week.
