We did these wonderful landscapes in oil pastels and worked on them for some time as we learned about atmospheric perspective. We did a fabulous job! Come see them in the fourth grade hall.
In fourth grade we learned about M.C. Escher, a famous artist who worked with tessellations. We created our own tessellations using a special technique and we created fun creatures out of the negative spaces.
Second grade is learning about emmigration, and we learned a few interesting facts about the Statue of Liberty. We then used our cropping skills to focus in on our favorite features of Lady Liberty.
