Today marks the end of my first week. We have been finishing up a few lessons and getting ready for the art/music show in March. The third and fourth graders have been working on a Keith Haring inspired lesson about movement. Their teacher read them Keith Haring: I wish I didn't have to sleep and went over Edgar Degas dancers. They also learned about contrast and warm and cool colors. They are beginning to write a poem to go along with it, including verbs describing their paintings.

The first and second grade has been finishing their snow globes. Below is a picture of them on display with their gingerbread houses.
