Art Choice Day

My students always look forward to Art Centers/ Choices Day! On these days they can choose from a variety of Art Centers such as: modeling clay, zentangle, card making, Legos, weaving, and origami to name a few! It's times like these that I am reminded of the creativity of a young mind when it lets loose: no rules, no boundaries, just create!

Back to the 80's club show!

Our 80's show was totally tubular! The two night spectacular event was put on by Music, Art, Tech and PE Clubs. The 4th and 5th graders dressed up like kids right out of the 80's there were even a couple Michael Jacksons. The art club created the backdrop and all the props.
