First Grade Dandelion Wishes

First Grade Dandelion Wishes

Blow the dandelion and make a wish! First graders used collage for the center of the dandelion and applied the seeds with a cotton swab. Lastly they added the stem with green paint. Each girl made a wish, that was added to the bottom of the painting. 

Woven Prints

Third grade wove two different mediums in this interesting weaving. One paper was printed with color diffusing tissue paper, the other was a print made with foam plates. The foam plate was divided into sections of patterns.

Symmetry Collages

Second grade cut two shapes at a time by stacking paper before cutting. Once they had the two pieces, they created a mirror image, abstract design collage. 

Andrew Goldsworthy

Andrew Goldsworthy Used found objects in nature to make stunningly beautiful earthworks. 4th grade enjoyed making painted paper into works of art inspired by his leaf assemblages. First they painted a large piece of paper with analogous color schemes, blending one color into the next. Then they made a leaf template that was traced on the back of the paper. After cutting our the leaves, they glued them into a concentric circles.
