Interwoven in between the joy of Christmas and the delight of frosting, our fifth graders and kindergarteners enjoyed a lesson on cooperation as they decorate gingerbread men together.
This year in place of a gift exchange the fifth grade participated in the Adopt-A-Family program to help bring Christmas to families in need. Well done fifth grade!
The Christmas Pageant is a week from tomorrow. Be on the lookout for tickets in Backpack Express tomorrow!
While studying winter wonderlands and monochromatic color, the kindergarten collaboratively reimagined Pieter Bruegel the Elder's, "The Hunters in the Snow" (1565) as " The Snowmen in the Snow". They also observed winter scenes by nineteenth-century Japanese printmaker, Katsushika Hokusai and twentieth-century, self-taught artist Grandma Moses. Kindergarteners noted that the three artworks from different cultures and centuries highlight our shared relationship with nature. Also they observed and discussed that the clothing styles and architecture in each artwork varied. -- Josh Friedman, Art Teacher
