I hope everyone had a safe and fun Spring Break. The end of the year is quickly approaching. There are only 8 weeks of school left! We will be busy in the classroom every day until the end of the year. We are wrapping up our recycling study and will briefly study building and construction before moving on to a plant study to wrap up the year.
Before Spring Break the children worked on a concentric circle art project based on the the painting "Squares with Concentric Circles" by Wassily Kandinsky. The children selected plastic lids to trace, then cut them out and arranged them from largest to smallest on a square of paper. We put all the children's squares together to make a college. It looks great!
Upcoming Projects...
- We have some fun projects coming up, but we need your help to make them possible.
- We need glass baby food jars (clean and dry). If you have any, please send them in.
- The children will have to opportunity to create a melted crayon art project. I am asking for each child to send in $1-$2 to cover the cost of the canvases, glue gun and glue, and blow dryer.
