A great way for your students to tell you who they are.

Stained Glass


Who knew that symmetry could look so beautiful!  My 3rd class created a "glass" window using oil pastel and paper.

Snowmen


Good Day Snow!  As a class we discussed foreground while making these large snowmen out of pastels.

Picasso Faces



3rd Grader's get sucked into a Picasso portrait.

Jackson Pollock Books


Jackson Pollock inspired our sketchbooks that we draw in when we finish our projects early.

Aliens! Name aliens!


As a side project students turned their name into an alien!

Piet Mondrian

After looking at the work of Piet Mondrian's primary paintings students had some ideas on how to honor his technique.

sunflowers



As a class we looked at Vincent Van Gogh's, "Sunflowers."  Using oil pastel students had a great time making them BIG!
