How We Express Ourselves

We have delved into our last planner of first grade.  The students are very excited because it is all about art.   We conducted a questionnaire and gathered data about what kind of art do you like.  The answer was surprising because the majority of students said sculptures.   This week I utilized all those beautiful flowers I received for teacher appreciation to do a lesson on the art of Georgia O'Keeffe.   The students chose a flower that intrigued them and we examined them very closely.  Next, we drew what we saw BIG like Georgia does.  The final step is painting!
