First graders learned about landscapes. They cut a green paper in half to make the horizon line for their picture. They glued it onto the blue background of their landscape. They used bumpy lines to create mountains and a sunset. They use diagonal lines to create a one-point persepctive of a road. Using shapes, they made cows in their scene. Coloring with more than one color in an object and coloring neatly were stressed. Other details were added to complete their work.
Students will begin the year with a study of the art element of LINE during September. Stay tuned to see some awesome artwork in the coming weeks.
Check out the pictures of the examples of the angry birds the students got to make. Go to the home page to see them.
ANGRY BIRDS WEEK COMING TO THE MAY WATTS ARTROOM
May 21-25
Classes who have earned points for good work and behaviour will be enjoying some 3d/form lessons creating some of the angry birds. We will be using craft foam scraps, paper towel rolls, clay, balloons, etc. to create some of those birds. Students will learn to create these figures in various types of 3d sculptures. A lot of fun taking a 2d picture and turning it into a 3d form.
We are springing into the art element of FORM for the next couple of weeks. All classes will be making shoes as their 3d form lesson. First grade used paper to create these fabulous animal slippers.
Students created these fabulous Indian elephants using patterns and sparkly materials and pens.
During the month of October/November, the students will be studying SHAPE. The students learned about organic and geometric shapes. They made a design of fall leaves (organic shapes). The first week of November, they will learn about Cubism and the artist Pablo Picasso. The students traced various kinds of leaves on their paper. They used variety, repitition, going off the page in their design. The next step was to use watercolors in the colors of fall. Here are some pictures from Mr. Baldwin's first grade class.
Students created paper strip line faces as their final lesson on LINE this week. Students took the paper strips and curled, folded, etc. to create some fun paper faces. Ask your child what kind of lines did they use in their face sculpture.
Here are some examples from Mrs. Sobin's First Grade Class:
During the month of September, the students will be studying LINE. The students learned about the artist Wassily Kandinsky. To create these abstract Kandinsky pictures, they needed 1. A variety of lines 2. Repetition of those lines 3. a variety of color 4. a balanced design.
This is work from 1B the students who sit at yellow table.

This past quarter all the students have been learning about the artists Henri Mattise and Pablo Picasso. They watched a video of a reading of the book “When Pigasso met Mootise.” Then we did some online activities as a class. (All of this and LOTS more) is available on my blog
Each grade level did different lessons on these artists. Please take time to share this packet with your child and talk about it. You may want to hang up some of the pictures, get them framed, and send or give them to other relatives.

EVALUATIONS OF ART WORK GRADE 5
Characteristics of the fifth grade child in Art..
- love being designers-doing an actual assignment to design clothing, furniture, a house, etc.
- interested in learning new tools and techniques; capable of working with almost any material
- some lose confidence in their artistic ability because their drawings are not "real" enough or thik their classmates projects are better
- giftedness in art becomes more apparent at this age when children who love art and will devote long hours to doing it
- able to concentrate for much longer periods of time
April-
The week before spring break, the students walked into the artroom and the tables were covered with this long big sheet of white paper. They were given cups of the primary colors. First they painted a circle of their primary color. Next they poured a little bit of paint and their partner did also to try and create the secondary colors. I wish I had audio to go along with these pictures as the kids saw two colors mixed to make a different color. We hung the long panels of paper to dry. Students were great about clean up. When they return from break, we will look at books by Eric Carle. They will see how he made his drawings by painting on paper first, then using that to cut out shapes. We will make a scene from one of his books by cutting out shapes from the colors they made on those sheets.
Feb. 20th - Here is a sampling of the wonderful artwork the students did for the Square 1 Art Project. I even took the pictures with our new Elmo document camera...

PICASSO FACE
Students learned about Picasso and Cubism. They used construction paper crayons and cut out shapes. They were to make 2 different eyes, a nose, 2 different ears, and a mouth. Next step was to rearrange them and glue them to the face. Extra color was used to color in the face.
PICASSO - THREE MUSICIANS
Students learned about the print the three musicians. Can you find the 3 musicians and their instruments? Can you find Picasso's dog in the picture...all of him?
MATISSE'S ROOM
Students looked a this print. They were taught step by step by me using the document camera and projector. Much better viewing then when a teacher use to stand up and the board and tried to do it. They used oil crayons to color.
MATISSE CUTOUTS.
Students made their own organic shapes as the class did the Matisse cutouts online.
If any of these pictures are not included in the packet, your child may have been absent OR their picture is hanging in the hall OR I may be keeping it for the Festival.
Here is a cute way to remind your child where is the top of the scissors. They should put their thumb in the small hole (top of the gator) and other fingers in the larger hole at the bottom
