I haven't visited the blog to share the great learning happening in the studio for too long! Instagram has become an easier way to share art studio happenings. You can follow our studio learning adventures and my art teacher life at @Aliteachesart. I never post pictures of kid's faces without parent permission, but I DO post pictures of my pets occasionally. So much is happening in the art studio. Artists are in the middle of building skills and perseverance with sewing in the older grades and younger students are exploring big ideas. I am amazingly proud of the problem solving and creativity of our Muddy Brook artists! This year I have focused on teaching solving problems and knowing that an artist's vision doesn't happen immediately, and artists embrace failure as part of the process of creating. Artists experiment, ask what if? and artists make plans and change their plans. Along with building skills and having fun with learning, students are embracing the creative process!
1st Graders are adding a playground and park to their "Collage Town".
Sewing with sharp needles is tricky to learn and 3rd and 4th graders are persevering!
Look at these pillows!
Our youngest artists build skills each week by creating at open-ended studio centers.
"Cut and Glue Collage is a favorite of many!
