📚 From Abstract Art to Hand-Bound Books! >
Our 3rd graders have officially become authors and bookbinders. This week, they combined art history with hands-on engineering to create custom journals. The process was intense:

🎨 Step 1: Learning abstract brushstrokes and analogous color harmony.
✨ Step 2: Adding texture with salt and saran wrap.
♻️ Step 3: Sustainability! We upcycled hard-pressed boards from our bulk drawing notebooks to create durable covers.
🐈 Step 4: Personalizing with everything from traditional Japanese writing to kittens and superheroes!

Each book is finished with a hand-picked ribbon. We are so proud of these young creators!

March is #ArtsInSchoolsMonth, and our 5th graders are taking "let them eat cake" to a whole new level! 🎨🍰

Under the guidance of Ms. Barnes, these young artists transformed simple cardboard shapes into tiered masterpieces. The secret to their success? A multi-step process involving:

📐 Engineering bases from triangles, rectangles, and squares.

🛡️ "Weatherproofing" with aluminum foil.

🎭 Layering fabric and a custom paper-mâché blend (yes—that’s toilet paper, glue, and paint!).

We are so proud of their hard work and creativity! Which "flavor" is your favorite? 👇
