PASTEL LANDSCAPES
This week in ART third and fourth graders created pastel landscapes.
The vocabulary word we learned was "SPACE".
Space means creating the illusion of depth in a piece of art! :)
Congratulations SPARK artists!!

Stuffed animals, Stories, and FUN!
The Haas n' Baker Student Story Time Symposium!
Friday, June 14th from 8 - 9 a.m.
Friday, June 14th from 8 - 9 a.m.
Please join us for a collaborative event between MC Baker's Art Room
and the Haas Classroom showcasing the skills learned in Art using math,
patterns and imagination to design stuffed animals/creatures and hand
stitching them to bring them to life!
In the classroom we read The Miraculous Journey of Edward Tulane by Kate DiCamillo as our Read Aloud book. The students then wrote and illustrated stories about the journey of their very own stuffed animal that they created with Ms. Baker. Their enthusiasm was also inspired by Katie Boutin, Ben's sister, who asked if my class would illustrate the children's book she wrote for her Senior Grad Challenge from CVU. They enjoyed doing that so much they wanted to do one themselves. Katie's book will be on display Friday morning as well! (ssshhh...the author may be able to make an appearance!)
The students have also been learning many different types of Poetry and have written and illustrated "wonder - full" Poetry Books!!! Yes indeed, we have been busy bees!!!
