The art show was a huge success! Thank you for coming out and supporting the art program at Morgan County Primary School. Here are some photos of our proud artists!
The art show is this Thursday, November 13th in our school lunchroom! You may drop in anytime between 5:00-7:00 pm. Please come by and see the beautiful art from the students of Morgan County Primary School. I hope to see you there!
Several Second Grade classes created dusty chalk landscapes. They studied many different types of landscapes and we discussed what we saw in the reproductions we viewed. We talked about how things look when they are far away. I asked questions like, "how do trees look in the distance"? "Can you see each individual leaf, and why"? "How do fields and pastures look when they are far away"? This were created with messy chalk pastels which was a new material for most of them. The kids liked how their art turned out and it makes me happy to see them proud of their work. These are truly beautiful works of art.
Several First Grade classes were learning about animals in art and they created these Wild Animal drawings. I only have two to share but I love all of them! The students worked on black paper with oil pastels and it really created a lovely affect. These will also be a part of our First Art Works show November 13th!
Here are some lovely tissue paper landscapes created by several First Grade classes. They were made with tissue, glue, and construction paper and we put a coat of Mod Podge over them last to seal everything down and give it a great shine. I love how these turned out.
These First grade Family Portraits have really turned out lovely! I am very proud of the students and how they really made each person large and in proportion as well as their neat work. These families will be in the art show next month and are sure to make Mom and Dad proud!
I always have a variety of things going on in my art room. I generally do not do the same lesson with each class in each grade level, just to keep things fresh for me. I will do my best to post about all the lessons that are underway! Please refer to the "BLOG archive" below to see all the posts from this school year.
