Kindergarten has been busy. We read about a selfish Rainbow Fish that wouldn't share his shiny scales. We were glad in the end, that he learned that sharing made him feel great, just like when we share with our friends. The students were able to use marbles to paint with metallic paints. When their creations dried, they were cut into strips to weave into our unique fish. After weaving, we added creative fins and other details to finish our colorful fishes. Next, we studied the artist Georgia O'Keeffe and created our own versions of close up flowers. The kiddos first drew their flower on a four inch square, then enlarged it onto a twelve inch square. They then used tempera cakes to fill with awesome color. Our flowers turned out wonderfully, don't you think?
