Art
Any gator who wants to use an art smock please wear it to the art room. You can bring it clean each week or leave it in your locker! It is best to wear a shirt a size too small than too large. Larger ones tend to end up in the project causing problems...YIKES!!
We are using the Element of Art = Form and Space and the Principles of Art = Balance during the fifth 6 weeks. We will continue to use the Elements of line, shape, color and texture in our projects.
Check out some of 3rd Grades sculptures in the library window!
