Enrichment Day Activities

Knights in Armour 

We had a very successful final Enrichment day of the school year.  Students K - 12 participated in a variety of activities throughout the day.  The Knights of Veritas came and shared Medieval sword fighting techniques and the Code of Chivalry.  Mrs Allaway helped lead the all school art project.  Mr Jacobson came in and shared his knowledge and love of art and lead all students through landscape painting.  Thanks for all the fun!

Elementary Parrot Paintings

The 4th and 5th graders have created these incredible paintings:

This one was done by Ashley.

This one by Bailey. 

Kinley painted this one.

Here is Brittany's.

Kyle's will hang in the school's permanent collection.

Louden took a slightly different approach by using colored pencil.  He also cut his parrot out and put it on a solid background rather than painting the background.

Madilyn has had a love-hate relationship with this painting.  As you would guess, love won out.

In order to make these, each student found a photograph that they liked.  After taping the paper down, each student drew an outline of the parrot they had chosen (free hand--no tracing!).  Then they used tempera wash to add the color.  

I'm really very proud of these artists, and not just for these paintings.  They have been working so hard, developing strong skills, and enjoying the process, too!
