School Projects

Kaila and Ellie

Zeb and Grant

We are studying the Renaissance for history: I have an art curriculum that follows our history and here we are learning about a painter, Pieter Bruegal. We are using a stamping method using vegetables and paint.










We learned about another artist, Albrecht Durer. He was a german printmaker who supported Marten Luther. The kids took a crack at some monoprints.




The sun and the 9 planets


waiting to get started....


Carol is talking about the planets


We gathered with Becca and her 5 kids and Carol and her twins to make our own solar system. The yellow balloon is the sun and the planets we covered balls in fabric. It was a great hands on project so the kids can see the order, size and color of the planets.
