1st and 2nd graders' Magic Carpets

1st and 2nd graders practiced drawing wavy, zig-zag and broken lines while dreaming up places they would fly on their magic carpets. They also learned out of double knot and earned beads whenever they got it right! Many students did not want to go far on their magic carpets. Six Flags, Chuckie Cheese, and the movies were all popular destinations.

Asjah did excellent job coloring in.
Kenye gave her carpet lots of dots
Tranique used very bold colors as usual!

1st grade paintings

Catahjari and Aaliyah made twin paintings!
Alijah and Paris did not exactly follow the directions, but they both worked hard and used their imagination. That is what matters most! You will have to ask Alijah and Aaliyah about their interesting creatures.

Artwork by Monday, Cameron, Devin. I am not sure who the bottom three because when I was taking pictures, I accidently missed the bottom...This is why it is very important to write your name on FRONT of artwork.

Art Show #2 at Library

The Laurel Burch projects (cats, flowers, fish, sun, moon) are hanging at the Woodson Library. Thank you to Kevan and Larry, who helped me hang the artwork. The artwork will stay there over the summer, so be patient getting that project back. But you will have all summer to make it to the library to see everyone's great work.

Max and the Wild Things come to Fernwood

The Lower Grades read the book "Where the Wild Things Are" in celebration of the movie coming out in theaters. They made a collage of their own Wild Thing. They learned how to draw stripes and feathers, and their Wild Things rolled their terrible yellow eyes, showed their terrible claws, and mashed their terrible teeth. I dressed up as Max on Halloween...I make a great Max, don't I! I learned my mischievous smile from my students :-)
