Fridays are very busy for us in Room 72 with Gym and Music. Today we learned a bit about Canadian artist Emily Carr. We started a chalk pastel art piece and made a few discoveries. If you work with chalk pastels, cover your piece so it doesn't smudge. If you're careful, only a few fingers should get dirty. You can outline with the corner or shade with the side of a chalk pastel. Then, blend.
Reminders: We are collecting a few things for our class. Do you have any gently used games or puzzles we can keep? Each child received a "Me in a Bag" letter. It explains a project we are asking of each student to help us learn more about each other. Please bring your project whenever you are ready. We hope to have all projects shared by Sept. 23.
