The K/1s are studying animals of the Northeast. To enhance their classroom work they crafted clay animals in art class and then built three habitats: a wetlands, a forest and a field where they will locate their animal.
I've been teaching art at Parker since the school's beginning in 1991. Working with students over their kindergarten through eighth grade year becomes a longitudinal study of creative child development. It's inspiring and energizing to be part of the students' amazing growth as artists thoughtful young adults.
