April Art Update!

Welcome back to the Westlawn Art Blog for another art room update! There will only be one (maybe two) more updates before the school year comes to a close. It has been, and continues to be a pleasure to teach your children, something I don't take for granted. I hope they are enjoying what they are doing in art class and are teaching you a little something too ;)

This past month we did some recycling and reusing by creating two projects from empty t.p. and paper towel rolls. The 2nd grade students made some Pop Art Popsicles and the 4th graders are still in the midst of creating Telescopes for their upcoming 4th grade musical. Thank you to those of you who sent in those items! We are set for now ☺

Speaking of recycling and creating art out of cardboard... did you hear the Westlawn Cardboard Challenge is happening again this year? What a neat opportunity to have fun making an original art creation! I believe the deadline for sign ups is May 13th. Have your kids sign up if you haven't already!

NEWLY on display in the front hallway of Westlawn are two third grade projects... Collagraph Prints and Warm and Cool Agamographs. Two of my favorite projects I teach ☺ Check them out below...

Collagraph Prints featuring Ms. Ingham's 3rd grade class

 Warm and Cool Agamographs featuring Ms. Beebout's 3rd grade class



Don't forget to check out YOUR child's grade to see what they've been up to! See you back here at the end of May. Chow for now ☺
