2nd Graders examined photos of the Aurora Borealis and discussed how the colors interact. Then using black and white chalk students rendered a realistic polar bear. Finally, using chalk pastel students tried to capture the beauty and movement of the northern lights applying their knowledge of different blending techniques.

3rd graders learned about the artist Norman Rockwell and his Saturday Evening Post covers. Students examined parodies of different Rockwell's painting and the elements of a parody. Finally, students created their own “Triple Self-Portrait," adding objects to their canvas that represent their favorite things or objects that define them.

Fourth grade students learned the history of emoji's, pictographs and symbols. Then students wrote down the emotions they feel on a good and bad day then matched these emotions to an emoji's. Finally, they learned about printmaking and the printmaking process and created emoji prints on painted paper. See the student's art on Artsonia here: https://goo.gl/cBbYTn |
