October Art Update!

Hello and welcome to November! Thank you for stopping by to see what your child has been up to in art class during the month of October. ALL Westlawn students have worked diligently to complete their artwork that will be submitted to Original Works very soon! You should be receiving information about this Westlawn fundraiser in the upcoming weeks from our PTO! Don't pass up an opportunity to purchase items with your child's one-of-a-kind artwork! They will make terrific gifts for the holidays! Check out your child's grade to see some of the completed projects☺

Here's a little preview...




Another highlight from the month of October was our 5th grade Art and Music Field Trip
Check out this good looking group! We had a blast on the trip. More pictures from the field trip are under "5th Grade."


I also wanted to make mention of an art opportunity that is taking place THIS FRIDAY (November 4th) at the Community Cultural Center. They will be holding an art class "Techniques in Cray-Pas (Oil Pastels) with Janann Miller from 10am-12pm. What a great thing to have your kids do on a day off of school! To see more information check out this link... http://cedarburgculturalcenter.org/childrenart.html

I will continue to post information about any art opportunities I know of, both on my blog and my informational board outside of the art room. I hope your kids have a chance to take part in some fun art experiences outside of school! Please let me know of any opportunities that YOU know of that I can advertise for our Westlawn families!

Lastly, I will likely be looking for a couple parent volunteers next week leading up to Veteran's Day! I am planning to put together a BIG project for that special day when we invite Veterans into our school. Send me an email if you might have some time to volunteer during a school day next week! srmiller@cedarburg.k12.wi.us

Thanks again for stopping by!

See you again at the end of November☺

Artfully yours,
Mrs. Miller
