Dryden's Art Program-2nd Trimester News
from Mrs. Fuglestad
Thank you for taking a few moments to find out what has been happening in your child's art class. There is so much more learning going on than a glimpse in the hallways would show since we do so many digital extensions to our learning with our class set of iPads.
Augmented Reality in the Art Room
We had a chance to see book covers come to life with Augmented Reality in the art room with our Family Reading Night Seuss-Fest. Check it out here. Download and print my QR codes and make your copies of these Seuss titles come to life at home with the free EyeJack app.
