2nd grade collaborative mural - War of the Worlds

Jack, Cole, and Isaac started a collaborative drawing about a space battle one day near the beginning of the year. They were so excited about the way that it was turning out, that they asked if they could add another piece of paper. Every day for a couple of months, they would come in, get another sheet of paper, tape it on, and continue the battle, until they ended up with 24 sheets! They would have started with our big mural paper if they had known how fast their ideas would flow. Every class period, I would only see the tops of their heads as they were bent over their work and drawing excitedly.

Copy and paste this address to view many of the pieces of art from the spring show.

Spring All-School Arts Festival, 2007

These are kindergarten artworks from our recent spring all-school art show in which we had over 600 pieces of artwork displayed.

1)Kiana's collage castle for her grandparents, in which she started with a paper bag. 2)Susie's painting done with 3 colors of paint in spray bottles, torn-paper shapes, and a paintbrush. 3)Sydney's mixed-media collage, which she started with a painting using spray bottles and a brush, then added specialty papers and ribbons. 4)Latiana's painting of a dinosaur.

This robot's mouth was made from a parmesan cheese lid. How creative! It also made a perfect location for the robot to have three eyes!

Elizabeth made a papier mache doll using a plastic bottle as armature. After she had painted it, she dressed it with fabric, added yarn hair, and a hat from our collection of "beautiful stuff."

Gala masks

We have these unusual shapes of cardboard donated by the packaging company where my husband works. They make great gala masks using mixed media and "beautiful stuff" (anything that can be used to decorate).

Construction plus!

Madison, a third grade student, started at the construction station to made this chapel. Then she chose kraft sticks to make a bride and groom, and yarn to make their clothing and the bride's purse. At the front of the chapel is an urn with flowers. Madison worked on this for several class periods, painting the chapel and adding accesories until she got it just right.

Non-objective Painting

Madison told me that she wasn't sure what she was painting, but I told her that it was a beautiful non-objective painting!

3-D masks

Doesn't Taylor's mask remind you of a little old lady with her Easter hat on? She even has a black lace shawl.

First grade students love to paint!

China is very proud of her flowers growing in the rain.

Some creative constructions

Santa and his reindeer- Madeline and Abeer




Man with a heart















Flower pot with flowers







Grace used some of the cut up "orphaned paintings" to decorate her flower pot with a collage. She decided that it needed flowers, so created her own out of tissue paper.

Papier Mache` Masks

A group of our fourth and fifth grade students have enjoyed making papier mache` masks and dolls. These are just two of many.

Another Station

The construction station, where students create three-dimensional sculptures out of found objects, is one of our most popular stations.
