Art week 1, Sept 11th

Art week 1, Sept 11^th

Our well prepared assistant teacher Jennifer Wright gave us our first Art Biography of the year. She told the class all about Chagall. She showed them more than 5 of his works, shared about his life and discussed his painting. She likes how colorful his paintings are and that he painted how he felt and didn’t worry about painting a realistic view.

                            

What we worked on today:

·        We worked on portfolios ( if your child forgot theirs or brought it home to finish, please send them with one next week) simple poster board or cardboard.

·        We Talked about the purpose of this class : To know famous artists and learn techniques to make our own great works.

·        We talked about the Art Bios that each student will present at the end of the semester on the artist of their choice.  Presentations will be about 3 to 5 min. Teacher Jennifer had a great example.

·        We played a get-to-know-you game to learn everyone’s name in class.

·        We set class rules to follow.

Next week:

·       Bring portfolios

·       Artist of the week : Kandinsky

See you all next Thursday morning.
