After creating a painting and a collage of the animal they were studying in class, the K/1s sculpted their animal in clay and then painted it. The students then built a habitat in which they placed their animals.
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.
