Our student teacher Miss Jess Engel has taken over most of our lessons!  She is a very talented student teacher from MSU, who will be working with both Sandy Hill and Pinewood Elementary until mid December!

The second grade artists are making figures in movement that are inspired by Keith Haring.

Our fourth grade students are working on Collage inspired by Romare Bearden.

 

Our  Kindergarten students are creating a Self Portrait!

Look forward to seeing artwork in the hallways!  First grade students made owls out of clay, fourth grade made very creative drawings from lines, third grade has artwork inspired by Aboriginal art, fifth has radial op art designs & sixth has symmetrical art made from names!

Why is art important?
