So much is happening in the Central Art room! Kindergarteners made polar bear collages, 1st grade created hot cocoa mugs, and 2nd graders painted snowy cardinals. Third grade is working on Tyree Guyton-inspired houses, fourth grade just started clay Egyptian sarcophagi, and fifth graders learned running stitch and whip stitch to make bookmarks! Meanwhile, students in Art Club made mini model magic versions of mugs that they will make out of clay. Yay!
