Longest Line

In Third Grade we have been learning about geometric shapes. We also reviewed organic and geometric lines as we created the longest lines we could!

Second Grade Abstract Snowmen

We talked about cropping in Second Grade this week and zoomed in on some of our favorite features of our snowmen friends.

Gratitude quilt

We each made a quilt square in first grade about something we were grateful for.


We then pieced the squares together to create a first grade quilt about the things we are grateful for!

First grade holiday cards

In first grade we learned a little about printmaking and made our own cards for the holiday season!

SMA does Figure Drawing!

Last week we had some special guests from the Springville Museum of Art visit our school and do a demo on how to draw figures.
We had a great time posing for the gesture drawings!

Summit Academy Decorates Zion's Bank Tree!

Our 4th and 5th grade students had a special opportunity to decorate a tree in the lobby of Zion's bank. We created our decorations with glue and q-tips. We made glue snowmen and q-tip snowflakes. We had so much fun and many of us attended the "lights on" ceremony and got free cookies!

5th grade collage quilt

In Fifth Grade we learned about quilting and the different geometric designs we see in quilt squares. We created our own symmetrical quilt square and filled it with textures and colors we found in magazines. It is a work in progress but will look wonderful when we put all of the pieces together!

Kinder Paint!

We love to paint in Kindergarten!

Moon Mosaics

Third grade just finished up learning about the moon, and we learned about mosaics in art. We did some value shading and then created our own replicas of the moon using a mosaic process.

Transfer drawing masks

Our Third Grade is learning about the different tribes of Native Americans. We learned about Totem Poles from the Northwest tribes, but we also discovered the masks they created to tell stories. We created our own masks using a transfer drawing process that makes them all unique.

Second Grade Westward Movement Mural!

In Second grade we learned about murals and how they often tell a story. The above mural was done by a Chinese Artist Liu Xioudong and is currently on display at the Salt Lake Art Center.
Following the style of Xioudong, we created a long mural that told the story of our nation's westward expansion.
Day 1 was spent sketching and planning. Stay tuned for the finished product!
