Art

Artists are embracing spring with nature-based drawings, fiber arts and collages. Fourth grade artists are finishing their stitchery projects. Sixth grade artists are using watercolors.

Music

We are continuing Unit 11 this week - Move It! Students will be discussing and viewing different types of dance, as well as learning simple, socially-distanced dances from around the world. Parents: ask them to show you one at home! I will try to share the music on their choice boards this week. In-person classes will continue learning performance pieces for body percussion or percussion instruments.
