Kindergarten & 1st Grade

Matisse's GolDfish

Kindergarten and 1st Grade learned that artists create art about experiences and about how art is made to enhance an environment by studying Henri Matisse's The Goldfish. For inspiration, we set up our own peaceful place with goldfish, plants, and flowers in the classroom. Our projects were based on what made each of us, individually, feel calm.

Monoprint Dots

After reading The Dot by Peter H. Reynolds and discussing what helps artists be creative, Kindergarten and 1st grade created their own dots!
