5th Grade iPad Art

Here are a few examples of our 5th grade photos created in the Wordphoto app. Students photographed themselves in art class and then added adjectives to describe their personality. 

4th Grade Fieldtrip to the High Museum of Art

Fourth graders attended a fieldtrip to the High Museum of Art in Atlanta this week and participated in the I See Literacy Tour where they learned more about reading works of art as you would read text. Our students are very fortunate to have the opportunity to go to the High each year in fourth grade since 2005! A great time was had by all students and teachers as well!

Youth Art Month

Congratulations to Amber, one of our kindergarten artists, and William, one of our second grade artists, who were chosen to represent our school in Fulton County's Youth Art Month display this year. We are so proud of them both! Their artwork will be on display at our administration building during the month of March. Way to go students!

Georgia O'Keeffe Flowers with iPads

4th grade students experimented with an app on our iPads in art class to create these abstract versions of their Georgia O'Keeffe flowers they originally drew using oil pastels. Students photographed their original art, then use the iPads to manipulate their photos into these beautiful works of art.

2-Point Perspective Castles

5th grade students learned about 2-point perspective in art class and then used many creative details as they created their own castle life scenes.

       

 

 

 

 

 

Wild Things Sculptures

Kindergarten students read Where the Wild Things Are by author and illustrator Maurice Sendack and created drawings to plan for their sculptures that were inspired from his illustrations. Students demonstrated their knowledge of the difference in 2-dimensional and 3-dimensional art as they created their creative creatures!

 

       

Gyotaku Fish Prints

Second graders are learning about the art of Gyotaku fish printing during their unit on printmaking. They are painting a background to create an environment for their fish and then cutting and pasting their Gyotaku prints onto their paintings to create a finished work of art.
