My Project

These materials will be used towards a Unit exploring student identity! Students will start by reflecting on what they like: color, food, hobbies- the scented markers allow students to consider what scents they prefer. They will create drawings of where they live.

Next, older students will create self portraits using the watercolors.

The Do-a-Dots with other mixed media is for Prek students to use in exploratory ways. Students will be encouraged to emphasize a feeling.

Social emotional learning, process exploration, and fun is at Arts core. Our students are so creative and talented. You can help!
