I will be posting blog information weekly on what's going on. Here is what's been happening the last five days:
6th Grade: Learning all about the color wheel, how to make secondary and tertiary colors from those three, much reliable primary colors: red, blue and yellow! Did you know these pigments come from minerals and plants?
7th Grade: Learning how to draw. Yep, ANYONE can learn how to draw, it is true, and there are 70 7th graders becoming believers (it is so rewarding!).
8th Grade: Reviewing the color wheel, tints, shades and monochromatic colors in preparation for our coveted mural project in the ART YARD. It's indeed a privilege, and it takes lots of discipline and team work to be able to paint outside so we are practicing our painting skills before this project begins.
LEGOS!! In preparation for our Trimester II mural project, we are asking those in the community to donate legos. Yep, any size, color, or shape, we aren't picky! If you have Lego's to donate, please drop them off at the MMS office. Thank you in advance!!
Sculpture Garden: We will be continuing our Sculpture Garden fund raising again this year. We are asking for donations of cake mixes and canned frosting. Again, we aren't picky, and will GLADLY accept anything you can send our way. Brownies work great too!
Here's to a great year everyone! I would LOVE to have you subscribe to this website. I will be posting photos of student work and lots of cool links and artsy stuff too.
