Hello Turtles! We are sending off our first  International Fiber Collaborative exhibition to Texas!
A wonderful area called Big Thicket is home to several species of animals and flowers in several biomes and habitats.  
Ms. Mason's 4th grade class picked up their oil pastels and created some of the animals we often see here in Arizona as well.
Here is a group picture of the artwork we are submitting to the exhibition!
 
Hello Turtles!!
Our Donor's choose bulletin boards have been installed and we are beginning to exhibit artwork on them. While the boards themselves ARE a work of art, the students will have opportunities to see student work on the boards as well.
I encourage you to travel all the hallways in buildings A & B when on campus for an even or upcoming parent teacher conferences!!! While the boards are in specific hallways they art work is school wide for style and association to the background on the student painted bulletin boards. Here they are!

Week of Aug 2 2021

Thank you to all parents who have sent in their $5.00 lab fee to the front office- clearly marked art class lab fee with your child’s name and homeroom!!! 

We continue to practice using our P.O.W.E.R. in art class. 

This Week ink-2 Art Class we reviewed and used Primary colors. Looked at the Vocabulary Word Wall and created some art with lines and colors.  

Third and fourth grade reviewed our service-learning project Kaavan with crosswords and word searches. These tasks help eye and hand coordination for drawing as well as increase vocabulary 

Preparations for ARTSONIA.COM are in process. This is the largest online gallery in the world for student artwork. Our students have digital exhibition space at www.artsonia.com under the school's name. Each child has a screen name as well. Parents can upload their child’s artwork directly! Artwork can be made into keepsakes in the gift shop. Each work of art made from the Kaavan service-learning project donates 20% to the Cambodian Wildlife Sanctuary to help Kaavan the elephant.
