April 27 - May 1 Art Schedule

This week will be a check in session for those working on projects assigned last week.  I will be reading a bit from the book, "Not a Stick" by Antionette Portis, to the K and Grade 1s.  Grade 2's will be a check in on their Found Object sculptures.  Grade 3/4 will be shown how to make a pop up landscape, which is a carry on from last week's cityscape.  Finally Grades 5 and 6 will be a check in on the Found Object/Laundry Art Choices.

Here are a few projects already done from last week:

Grade Two Sculpture Assignment

Today students were introduced to a sculpture scavenger hunt challenge.  Follow this image that I borrowed from one of my Professional Learning Community teachers.  Create your sculpture and take a picture of it.  Then send me the picture through email or direct message on my professional Facebook page.

Not a Box: Kindergarten and Grade 1 Lesson for the week of April 27th.

Fantastic Zoom meeting to those that were able to join us today.

The inspiration for this week's art project was "Not a Box" by Antionette Portis

Step 1: Think about what you could turn a box into. Draw a rectangle or square to start your design idea.

Step 2: Collect some boxes and other found objects and see what you can create.  Some ideas shared were castles, houses, and robots.  We will share what we are making next zoom meeting.

Here are some ideas too:

Check out my facebook page for the video as I am finding it tricky to load properly on here.  Have a great Easter everyone.  Be sure to send me your finished product through google classroom, facebook, or email.

Unfortunately something went wrong with my recording of our zoom meeting today and I can't post it.  I am posting the link to my pinterest page to check out the lesson we did today, as well as the other lessons I did for distance teaching.

This link is for an Art Hub for kids Easter basket drawing.  This project uses the same overlapping ideas that was done with the Grade 2 zoom meeting yesterday.

zoom meeting Gr.2 and Miller 2/3

Today's lesson was about overlapping shapes.  Overlapping is a good skill to learn in order to make your drawings look more 3d as you get older.  I look forward to seeing some of your completed work.

First Meeting

Awesome day for my first zoom class with Kindergarten, and Grade 1's.  We had 24 students join us and I really enjoyed seeing the faces and hearing the exciting when we started our meeting.  I am having trouble uploading our video so I hope to work out the problems to get it up soon.  In place I am posting the picture used for our demonstration.

Good day from my new classroom
