We learned how to draw Santa!
Sometimes we need (okay I need) to take a break from more stressfull projects, and on those days, we love to color. I don't like giving the kids a ready-made coloring pages, usually we make our own. I love how I give the same directions to each child, and yet they all turn out different. These Santa's had such personality!
5th and 6th got to try their hand at sculpting. I think they did awesome!
The kids designed their own gift bags for their clay ornaments.
When we set our minds on making our art room into a winter wonderland, we don't mess around! For the month of December we learned how to create many wonderful Christmas decorations. I told the kids that the decorations were for our room, but the knowledge of how to make them was theirs forever. (i.e. it's going to be too hard to find your snowflake amidst the other 200) Saddest thing in the world was having to say goodbye to these beautiful creations!
Older kids made the beautiful 3-D snowflakes, kinder's made the swirly Christmas Tree's, and 1st grade made the paper chain.
4th grade Wall Mural, This picture was in it's early phase, it turned out awesome!! (sorry for the horrible cell phone picture :)
2nd grade painted and glitter-fied, Tree Decorations.
1st and 2nd worked on the lovely poinsettias, and hung them on the 1st grade chains
