I have been swamped! I had actually done about ten "draft posts" but forgot to take the pictures! So, they never posted:( Anyway, I promise I'll TRY to do better for both you and my students!<br /><br /><br /><div>Art 2 and the 7th/8th grade Art 1 are making projects using the beautiful scenery of Good Hope this fall season thanks to the new nature trail created this summer by our vice principals. This project is all about the nature around us and how to reconize the simplistic beauty of the nature around us. We began this project by watching a documentary of Andy Goldsworthy. We talked about how his art was inspired by nature, made with nature, made IN nature, and given to nature...and often destroyed by nature...Whew! Lotsa nature! :)Here are some pictures of the projects!<br /><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_2KpLqZgCOow/Swb05v3NbiI/AAAAAAAAAKc/DvQlM-qrBmU/s1600/IMG_2129.JPG"><img style="TEXT-ALIGN: center; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px;

Sculpture is sometimes hard for teachers to integrate into the classroom without massive amounts of space and without powertools, wood, metal, etc. So, I decided to make 3 dimensional paper sculptures that we could display rather than store (My storage space is getting seriously limited)! Some students went with characters from movies (Nemo!) and others chose to do anatomically accurate fish, whereas others created their own mythical fish (We actually have a Llamafish!) Teachers and Students are all excited about the colorful displays "swimming" through the hallways:) Here are a few pictures of just some of the fish. I'll take more pics to post soon!<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_2KpLqZgCOow/SagmNwtCnTI/AAAAAAAAAEE/cmFOn2XU_w8/s1600-h/IMG_0603.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5307534178710101298" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_2KpLqZgCOow/SagmNwtCnTI/AAAAAAAAAEE/cmFOn2XU_w8/s320/IMG_0603.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_2KpLqZgCOow/SagklKYoCPI/AAAAAAAAAD8/RLAraZDNRIs/s1600-h/IMG_0602.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5307532381717530866" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_2KpLqZgCOow/SagklKYoCPI/AAAAAAAAAD8/RLAraZDNRIs/s320/IMG_0602.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_2KpLqZgCOow/Sagkk-mhJ6I/AAAAAAAAAD0/iFR7GjHHTNc/s1600-h/IMG_0601.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5307532378554574754" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_2KpLqZgCOow/Sagkk-mhJ6I/AAAAAAAAAD0/iFR7GjHHTNc/s320/IMG_0601.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><br /><br /><div><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_2KpLqZgCOow/SagkkuWwRAI/AAAAAAAAADs/D36PlcFYMfQ/s1600-h/IMG_0600.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5307532374193488898" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_2KpLqZgCOow/SagkkuWwRAI/AAAAAAAAADs/D36PlcFYMfQ/s320/IMG_0600.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><div><div> </div></div></div></div></div></div><div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2347356637042344620-1314362098550859726?l=ghmsart.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>leachladyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00767780711245220384noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2347356637042344620.post-51525862512802009762009-02-13T11:28:00.000-08:002009-02-13T11:53:33.125-08:00<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_2KpLqZgCOow/SZXO7erUNZI/AAAAAAAAADM/XUyDfX3Y2g0/s1600-h/IMG_0495.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5302371657540973970" style="DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px; TEXT-ALIGN: center" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_2KpLqZgCOow/SZXO7erUNZI/AAAAAAAAADM/XUyDfX3Y2g0/s320/IMG_0495.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><div><div>My dear students that sold 25 or more on the annual Art Fundraiser were treated to lunch at Johnny's Pizza.

I always do this with 6th graders (Art 1), but this year my Art 2 students BEGGED to do them again, so I gave in. I figure if its something that they REALLY want to do, they will do good at it...and they did! My Art 1 students could create anything on their masks as long as they had all the components, but I made Art 2 students have a theme.

There are so many things that they do that they want to share, and I know how interested families are to see what there kids are doing:) So, I've decided to share the excitement of my classroom with you, sharing the creativity and successes of my students, your children, with you...because I hate to be stingy and keep it all to myself:) I'll post as we finish projects in each class. I hope you will enjoy and stay tuned:)<div class="blogger-post-footer"><img width='1' height='1' src='https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/tracker/2347356637042344620-8783904250711381103?l=ghmsart.blogspot.com' alt='' /></div>leachladyhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/00767780711245220384noreply@blogger.com0
