First art project


This is the first art project Andrew brought home from art class....and I am deflated!  I know he can do better work, that is not the point.  Point being using white crayon on manilla paper...seriously!  and to encourage the kids to just trace leaf outlines and then fill in to make snowflakes!  There is so much here that could have been....A dark paper, snowflakes that are individual!  This is why I am jealous when I see what some of my art teacher friends do with kindergarteners.  This is also why I try to do more at home.  

I am working on Vega's quilt.  I made 3 yoyos today.  Next is the rush to finish Christmas projects....cards, ornaments, baking and finalizing gifts.  Tomorrow I am helping to teach second graders to add double digits....time to break out my teacher voice!  Have a great night!
