Christmastime is here

Here's wishing you and your family a blessed holiday!  Please take a look at some of our recent art activities:

Kindergarten

 Kindergarteners completed their Gingerbread houses with a touch of glitter and began their texture puppies this week using swift thumb strokes to create the fuzzy fur!







 



Also, here are our fish in primary and secondary colors, which were mixed by students.




So proud of students' hard work!

1st Grade

First grade applied knowledge of symmetry in creating these cross ornaments!





2nd Grade 

Second grade created cross ornaments in Advent colors, with yellow to symbolize the brightly lit candles.



Here are the Eric Carle-style turkeys from earlier this trimester!



3rd Grade

After learning about the Nativity in their homeroom classes, third grade applied knowledge of color mixing by layering primary colors in these "stained glass" Nativity ornaments.  Great job, third grade!



4th Grade

Fourth grade completed their Saint "Stained Glass" windows in conjunction with their in-class reports!  Thank you, fourth grade, for also creating beautiful stars for the background of the Christmas show this year.





5th Grade

Fifth grade completed and took home their Christmas Carol snow globes this week!

6th Grade

Sixth grade created beautiful "Op Art" trees this week using the principle of rhythm!  Check back soon for photos.

7th Grade

Seventh grade completed their drum ornaments just in the nick of time!  Beautiful work, 7th grade!








8th Grade

Eighth grade continued to pour their energy into the creation of a large scale papier mache project!  Well done, eighth grade!

Merry Christmas!
