Art

December is always a busy month. Not only is it a short month, we also juggle the winter performance rehearsals into our daily flow. That being said, we had a few art classes in the Tile room. It’s a fun classroom to be in, yet we are limited with supplies and materials to work with. Luckily, we are creative and can roll with the punches!!

Polar bears on a winters night. Brrrr...don’t forget your scarf! Made with black and white paper and oil pastels.

When we returned from winter break we enjoyed working on a collage hunt. The students needed to search through many old magazines and calendars for specific images and letters. All the letters in their first name to be exact. Other things to search for: food, a place, plant life, an animal, a place and a random thing! 

We recently started a two part project, “A Fox in his habitat”. The first part involved a step by step on how to draw a Fox. First they draw it out with pencil and then use oil pastels to trace and fill. They drew a few more foxes in their art journals as well.  We cut them out and will create the background of the habitat on a separate piece of paper in a spectacular way the next time we meet in our creative space. **We didn’t get a chance to meet this week because of the power outage!
