Family Crest
3rd graders are studying the history and culture behind a family crest. They had to research their family history and heritage then apply this knowledge to their own unique Family Crests. This was a super fun project for the kids because it was so individualized. Notice how all the crests are unique and different. Our crests consist of a shield, mantling, helmet, crest, last name, and at least 3 pictures which describe our families.
Expressionism with Expressions
4th grade students studied the era of Expressionism. They created 8 different expressions from their personality, made a collage using these expressions, then added words that defined their personality.
Weaving (Pre-Project)
The students are tearing material for next weeks weaving lesson. We will be studying the art of weaving with 4th and 5th grade students.
