Spring 3rd Grade Gala Project

 My 3rd grade classes made 2 garden boxes for the silent action at our school.  One box had flowers and butterflies, the other had vegetables.

Primary and Secondary Stain Glass

This was a lesson in Primary and Secondary Colors. The students where to choose one and create a stain glass with tissue paper.

Creative Names

This was a little challenging for my 5th graders.  They had to write their name in cursive and cut it out and make it into and object. I just love the way they all came out.

Even Monster Need Haircuts!

At Halloween I read the book "Even Monsters Need Haircuts" by  Matthew McElligott. I had the students create their own monster who need a haircut. The hair was created with construction paper to give it a lift off the paper.

Tessellations

A lesson in color value using a Black and White contrast.
