Students are in the planning phase of writing their very own story! We are collaborating with art to create unique and creative cartoon characters (artistic versions of themselves) to use as the main illustration in the stories. Get ready to see and read some incredible (and occasionally comical) art and writing pieces. What a creative bunch!

Second Grade has taken an adventure into “The Color of Sound”. We read the book “Yesterday I had the Blues” by Jeron Ashford Frame and have been creating soundscapes to express the mood and color of each page. I have posted their videos on SeeSaw.

4th grade- Music & Art
Fourth Grade has been working collaboratively with art and music. We have studied the famous music composer Modest Mussorgsky and learned how is music was inspired by his friend, Victor Hartmann’s art work. We have flipped the script and now the students are creating artworks inspired by Mussorgsky’s famous pieces titled Pictures at an Exhibition. Our final goal is to create a gallery walk of “forever” piece to be displayed throughout the Johnson Valley.

It was my favorite of all time!
Just a note - Career Fair will be 5/16. It's a great experience for our students in 4th and 5th Grade as they begin exploring ideas for the future!
