Welcome back to another COLOR-FULL year at Woodmeade! We have stared off the year learning about color, rainbow order, primary/secondary colors and Warm & Cool colors!
Each grade levels has its own project created on top of a kinetic crayon drawing - - Whaaat?!
Kinetic drawings are made using both hands at the same time/same movement. Heather Hansen was our Artist inspiration, check her work out here - Source: YouTube https://share.google/fYpeSLYsLoGG5ss5F
On top of that we learned about warm & cool colors and painted over the crayon.

Learn about the artist Heather Hansen and make work in her style.

My Donors Choose friends! Back in August I wrote for some cardboard tools (safe saw, “scrus”, “scru” driver, hole maker, and a perforating roller for folds.) Last month 2nd and 3rd graders we learned how to use the tools safely and correctly making small things. It’s important for them to know how to use tools. It was all leading up to a big, BIG project which 3rd graders have made - making a dragon from recycled cardboard. Well - we’re almost done!! When complete the dragon will be over sixteen feet, have wings, and scales! I can’t wait to see it all put together!!
