April & May Art

It's hard to believe it's already April! To finish off the school year. each grade level from 1st through 5th will be creating an American themed art project to recognize and celebrate the USA's 250th birthday this year! Kindergarten will be drawing and coloring chameleons.

All grade levels will put their portfolios together with all of the artwork they have been creating this year. Look for those portfolios to come home in the last week or two of school.

I hope you all enjoy a safe summer filled with fun and relaxation!
