We are all finally getting into a nice groove in the art rooms. Second grade learned about painter Paul Klee and his use of geometric shapes. They had an open ended project where they were to draw anything they wanted (using geometric shapes like Klee). Instead of using a pencil, they experimented with drawing with glue. This required them to turn any "mistakes" into beautiful oopses since there was no safety net of an eraser. I will post their final results after they add color. :) In Kindergarten, I once again started the year with the book "Lines That Wiggle". Students learn about a variety of different lines. After practicing these lines, they turn their creations into monsters just like the monsters in the story. They all did great!
