Nature + glue = art

Our fall food display inspired some beautiful still life drawings. This one in the frame is by Ella, and it encouraged other artists to emulate her style.



It was busy in the art studio today. Children were working on collages made from the materials we've collected this week. Thank you to the families who helped us out!

"I'm making a flower garden."


"I like how she's putting them all together in the middle." - Lily, to Faith


"I made a bunch of dots."


The children learned how to use a gluestick properly, how to sort items by shape, colour, type and even smell, and how to share limited resources. They did a great job getting along and at building oral language and fine motor skills.

Meanwhile, over at the paint easel.....



Keegan started working on a still life of a bouquet he created. What an exciting bunch of artists!
