Please remember that creating can be messy. Students should 'dress for a mess' or bring an art smock on art days!
As always we will be integrating the concepts of science and math into the projects. We will be going full STEAMahead!
As we follow the MISD Art curriculum we are in our second grading period studying The Element of Art = Shape! We will continue to use line in our products as well as geometric and organic shapes. Stop by the campus to see the 'Only One You' fish swimming around in our hallways.
