Kindergarten Giraffes

Kindergarten is learning about Africa. We talked about the different animals that live in Africa and then they made these cute giraffes. I love kindergarten art!


Fifth grade locomotives

Our fifth graders just finished learning about the Civil War and all the events that surrounded it, so we looked at pictures of locomotives and drew them in charcoal.

Adobe houses

In fourth grade we made these awesome adobe houses in chalk pastel. They turned out so colorful and creative! Stop by the 4th grade building to see them.

Overlapping scissors


Fifth Grade did a fantastic job on their watercolor scissors. We overlapped the shapes and broke them down into little pieces to paint. Great job Fifth grade!

Diwali Lanterns

I got this lesson from Use Your Coloured Pencils and loved it. We were learning about celebrations around the world in Second Grade so we made some Diwali lamps to celebrate one of India's holidays. It was so fun and they kids had a blast making them!

Our 6th grade students did some fabulous landscapes after the style of artist Phil Lewis I loved the way these turned out! They are so bright and have so much movement. Great job 6th grade!
