News from the ART ROOM

Grades K-6 will be starting the year going over the foundations of art. ie. Line, shape, form, color, value texture and space

Thee grades will also be starting our SQ. 1 ART projects with a different theme for each grade.

All artwork will be shipped out mid October, followed by order forms ( that will include your child’s art work) going home to families shortly after.

Be on the look out for an email that further explains this fun and creative Fall fundraiser.

*** New this year SPARK on Wednesday afternoons for grades 5&6.

These classes are led by our fabulous United Arts team and focus around project based ” Hands on/Minds on” learning opportunities that help support a variety of classroom studies.

Here are some samples from ROXABOXEN an Art/Garden based community building project happening this Fall.

Special thanks to Maggie Benoit our Island Grown specialist for her knowledge, creativity and playful leadership in the school garden.
