Congratulations Art Students

What a week for our Bethlehem students!  Besides having a good week during school hours, our students displayed their talents at the annual Music and Art Extravaganza!  At the end of the concert, I awarded students certificates and prizes for placing in the 32nd Annual Saginaw County Art Exhibit, on display last week at Fashion Square Mall.

Here are some images of things happening in the art room.

Kindergarten students created an artwork called Wave Goodbye to Kindergarten.  We used our fingerprints to "paint" a negative image of a waving hand.

Second Grade students worked on warm and cool colored sun and moon images.  They also incorporated pattern into their works.

Third and Fourth graders made a design-based project for spring.  They filled a page with decorative flowers, then used white tempera paint to add highlighted areas.

Also in honor of spring, Fifth and Sixth grade students have insects as their subject matter.  In this assignment, they are practicing their observational skills and using a photographic reference to create a realistic drawing.
