    • 1st grade - Introduction to art and reviewing primary and secondary colors.  We have discussed portrait, and family portraits.  The students are drawing a family portrait along with any pets they may have.  Families are all shapes and sizes, and so it is the discretion of the student how he/she decided to draw their family portrait. 

     

    • 2nd Grade -Introduction to art and reviewing primary and secondary colors. This week we will be exploring different kinds of lines and making repeating patterns with them. This creates a beautiful array of colors and design.
