Kindergarten can't wait to use the table-top easels for their painting units. \r\n Overall, your donations have \"cleaned-up\" the old battered cardboard boxes and broken baskets that were housing the majority of our supplies and brought a shine and sense of pride back to the art room.

Whisperings of what they were going to sculpt and when was their class going to start was all I heard in the hallways. \r\n \r\n We have been making all sorts of ceramic pieces this year as we had a student-teacher that specialized in CERAMICS! The students were able to make many new and challenging projects from pencil toppers, fish and snails with flair! \r\n\r\n Winter has been challenging this year, TOO MUCH SNOW!! The snow blocks our kiln vent so we had to wait for the white stuff to melt away before we can get back into the rest of our ceramic units, and this week has been helping out a lot! With spring upon us we will begin our ceramic flowers with 4th grade.
