Kindergarten students learned about collaboration, unity, shape, and texture in the art room. They worked on making a square for a paper quilt. Students were given construction paper to cut out a square and a circle. They then used a magic texture plate to give their circle more color and interest. When students finished their project, it was added to the large paper quilt. You can see their hard work in front of the office!

In Art class, first graders learned about landscapes, the Northern Lights, and arctic animals. They used chalk pastels to make beautiful lights in the sky and torn crinkled paper to make mountains and snow. These turned out super cute. You can see more of these next to the nurses' office.

Fourth grade is learning the art of Origami (folded paper). They were taught three folds Hat fold, Kite fold, and Samurai fold. They can modify these basic folds as they wish while creating their paper sculptures in groups of 2 or 3 students. Stay tuned for the completed project pictures in the upcoming weeks.
