This week in the Art room, pre-Kinder through 2nd grade worked on perspective drawings and silhouettes. The 3rd grade worked on their retablos. A tiled mural was installed on the wall leading to the cafeteria. Each tile is a self portrait by every student in the school and the mural is titled "We are the World."
Some of the tiles were damaged in the shipment and had to be ordered again. They will be installed by the end of next week.
Un mural de autoretratos
Esta semana en la sala de Arte, los estudiantes de pre-Kinder hasta 2do grade hicieron dibujos con perspectiva y siluetas. Los de 3er grado terminaron sus ratablos.
Un mural de baldosas fue instalado en la pared que conduce a la cafeteria de la escuela. Cada baldosa es un autoretrato de un estudiante y el mural se llama "Somos el mundo". Algunas baldosas llegaron dañadas y tuvimos que pedirlos de nuevo. Serán colocados la próxima semana.
