Grades 5 & 6
Grab your sketchbooks and get outside your home this week! It is a great time of year to be outside! You only need a pencil and paper/sketchbook. Explore insects, leaves, flowers, trees, clouds, animals! If you would like you can add watercolor to your favorite sketch (or marker and a drop of water to spread the marker color). Have fun! You can email a picture of your work to me at swagner@ics41mtn.org for the gallery.
Your projects from last week are due! I can't wait to see the food carts and castles! Ask a parent to email them to me and I will add them to the gallery! swagner@ics41mtn.org
Also, find a nice smooth rock, add a base coat of color, and decorate! Perhaps your rock is a frog or lady bug! Use your imagination. We will be adding all of your rocks to the rock garden at school.
Art ROCKS!!!

PreK - Grade 4
Shadow Drawing!
A fun outside activity. Ask a parent to help you choose a subject (stuffed animal, figures, blocks) and take outside your home. Arrange subject in the sun so it casts a shadow on a piece of paper. Trace. Paint or color! You can stack several subjects! If you would like, cut them out. Create a beautiful background and add your cut out figures to the background to make a collage. Add lots of details. Have fun! Ask a parent to take a picture and email to me and I will post your work in the gallery. swagner@ics41mtn.org
Grades 2-4 Your projects from last week are due! I can't wait to see them!
If you have time work on your trading cards! Mary Cassatt, contemporary art, self portraits! You can use a 1 1/2" x 2 1/2" piece of paper to draw your trading card images and 3 facts. We will add them to the trading card binder when you return to school!
Have fun!
