Students hold art opening

On Tuesday, Oct. 24 students in Mrs Kucharskis and Mrs. Rockinger’s first grade classes held their very own art opening.

Students were showing off an art installation they completed while working with Miss Danielle Weinheimer, who is working on her Master's Theses at Goddard College.

Miss Weinheimer led students on a fantastic art and science journey where they built a life-size tree, made rubbings of real leaves for the foliage and grass and painted a beautiful blue sky.

Imitating the work of installation artist, Sandy Skoglund, students made bright orange insects, which they placed on the ground or in the tree. As part of first grade science and literature, students read On Beyond Bugs by Dr. Seuss and learned the parts of an insect’s body; the head, thorax and abdomen.
