Featuring Grade 5








Grade 5 recently explored the art of China. They used authentic materials to create a painting of bamboo. Students also created and printed their own artist seal (made from recycled meat trays), known as "the eye of the dragon" in Chinese painting.

Featuring Third Grade Figurative Sculptures!






Students chose an activity that they enjoyed and decided on an action pose to illustrate their activity. The sculptures were created by modeling air dry clay over an aluminum foil armature, painting on details and gluing the figures to a base. Two third grade figurative sculptures will be included in an art show coming up at the Calvert Marine Museum.
