One-point perspective is a system for drawing space in a way that looks three-dimensional on a flat surface. 5th graders are creating city drawings in pencil and permanent marker. The following pictures are from Mrs. Tranter's class.
It's the time of year when our artistic Olive owls begin making their clay projects. Every 1st-5th grader makes a clay sculpture. Our 4th grade students made clay sandals that expressed an interest of theirs or something they felt symbolized them. These images are from Mrs. Muhr's class.
Once again, I'll be teaching Summer U (summer school) art classes. I love Summer U because of its small class size and long class duration (art is only 45 minutes once a week for most students during the regular school year). Registration for District 25 students is March 13 - May 1, 2014. Click HERE for the link on the website.
These are the classes I'm teaching: Art Buffet – Grades 3-5 Morning 1 (9:00 am-10:25 am) Is one of your favorite parts of the school week art class? If so, Art Buffet is the perfect experience for you! Art Buffet is a general art class that explores a wide variety of materials and techniques. In previous years we wove pouches, used printmaking to create fantasy animals, painted with acrylic paint on canvas, and made paper mache masks. Here are some images from last year's class: Sculpture Spectacular Grades 3-5 Morning 2 (10:30 am-11:55 am) Usually my students' favorite projects during the school year are our 3-D, sculptural ones. If you feel the same, then this class is a dream come true! The class focuses on producing high quality sculptural work. We’ll make a ton of objects out of a variety of materials like clay, paper mache, wood, metal, and more. At the end, you'll have a range of 3-D works both big and small, some new friends, and lots of new skills. |
