Square 1 Art Fundraiser 2013: Schaffner Traditional

Our Square 1 Art fundraiser is already off to a great start! Thank you to all that are placing orders. 

The proceeds from last years Square 1 fundraiser payed for clay, glazes, aprons, paint, construction paper, crayons, brushes, drawing paper, a field trip to the KMAC for the 2nd grade, markers, texture plates, modeling clay, printmaking ink and more! Art supplies are expensive. They are also consumable and have to be replaced often. This fundraiser is what keeps my art program growing so please consider making a purchase if you haven't already. The students art will look fantastic on any product and make wonderful gifts. 

The deadline for orders is Thursday, November 14th, 2013.

Square 1 Art Fundraiser: 4th Grade "Picasotec" Suns

Inspired by a project I saw on Pinterest, I introduced the Aztec Sun Stone and compared it to some Picasso portraits. Fourth grade students viewed a PowerPoint I created and set to work. They learned about contrast, shades, tints, geometric and organic shapes and more. This student showed her creativity by using gradiated color. 

Kinder Square 1 Art: Rainbow Fish Sketches

My Kinders show great talent in this Rainbow Fish inspired project. And these are just their sketches! I gave them a tracer for the body and they followed a guided drawing (I drew and they copied me via Microsoft Paint and a document camera) for the rest. Each is a little different and very well done. 

Square 1 Art: Fall 2013, 3rd Grade Project

Here is an example of my third grade project for my Square 1 Art fundraiser, 2013. This student is showing so much creativity in her hippo portrait. A bathing suit! I love the humor my students show in their art. It's inspiring.
