Ms. Beth's Newsletter May 12th, 2017

Classroom News 
This week we focused on Art Appreciation.  We talked about what an artist is, discussed what artists use, looked at images of fine art, found objects in art, read Ish and The Dot to discuss all artists are different, painted a still life, drew with markers under the table to pretend to paint like Michelangelo, and created a pointillism (dot) painting.  In our small groups we practiced writing 1, 2, and 3, colored an R with rainbow colors and made a color square project, like the artist Josef Albers, to experiment with colors.
