4th Quarter!

Welcome back to school. I hope everyone had an amazing break. It was a little short but definitely needed in the Buehler household.

We are back to work and arting hard in the classroom. In Kindergarten, we are working on patterns and lines. We are studying Matisse's Purple Robe and Anemones. His use of patterns and line are brilliant. We are creating our own beautiful version using lines and patterns and we will be finishing them off with vibrant colors of oil pastels. We will then draw the Eiffel tower and get to do some more water color.

In first grade, we are studying Monet. For the first Monet project, we are discussing one point perspectives and studying his Tulips in Holland. We are recreating a version of tulips using a ruler. We will be finishing this project with beautiful oil pastels. We will be throwing some Georgia O'Keeffe in the middle and observing her flower paintings. We will be making a poppy flower that will be gorgeous!

In second grade, we are learning about John Audobon and his beautiful bird paintings. It is an amazing lesson in patience and observation. Students will be choosing a bird of their choice (I have printed copies of his work) and they will start with drawing them. When they are done drawing their bird, they will be using chalk pastel to add the detail and texture that make the birds realistic. We will then jump into Hokusai's The Great Wave. We will be using many different mediums to complete this project. I am excited for the students as they will get to paint.
