The fourth and fifth grade students began the year looking at Islamic tiles, a rose window, and other examples of radial symmetry. With these in mind they started name designs that will serve to beautify the halls and identify their lockers.
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.
