100 Years Old!

As part of our 100th Day Celebration back in February, we made pictures of ourselves when we are 100 years old! I thought you would like to see a few of them. Here we are in the year 2103 or 2104! We still look adorable!

Art Lessons

We started by looking and and discussing this portrait by Picasso. Then we made our own portraits using oil pastels copying Picasso's style. We did a GREAT job!
We looked at prints using primary colors and repetition of those colors. Here are our primary color repetition pictures!
Here we painted on card stock and then
printed that design onto fabric.
Oops, more repetition.

Good Bye Mrs. Baker!

Mrs. Baker's last day with us was Friday, March 5th.
We miss her already! Come and visit us soon, Mrs. Baker!

Goldfish Graphing

We read this book in honor of
Dr. Suess' birthday on March 2. Then we each got a pile of goldfish. YUM!
Then we laid each of our fish on a graph, sorting by color.
Jamiyah was loaded with orange fish!

Nice job Kaleb and Lamarion!

There were no yellow fish in our piles.
Next we put an X in the spot where we first put the fish.
Last, we gobbled up our goldfish and compared graphs. Mrs. Swanson gave each of us a
fish stamp for a job "Well Done!"
