WOW what amazing illustrations you have created! I love the way you decided to draw the Giant Squid! You really used your imagination. Now you can say that YOU have created an illustration for the story. Hey, that makes YOU an illustrator!. We learned many things about what is "under the sea". I hope you get to visit the ocean this year. If you do, maybe you will see the Giant Squid paintings pictures under the sea? Enjoy!

You have learned how to do printmaking! Good for you! Also you have created a wonderful under the sea world where your fish and play and have a wonderful time. You made good use of your imagination in creating this wonderful art work. Keep up the good work!

Beautiful work. What a great "still life composition". You have achieved the standard of identifying and creating an original still life composition. You have also learned to recognize several famous artist and their works. Remember the video on Linnea in Monet's garden and the beautiful pictures of Vincent van Gogh flower in vase paintings. You also learned how to do a mixed media project (one that uses several techniques like collage, drawing, and tissue paper texture to create your own masterpiece. Good for you! Keep up the wonderful work.

I can tell you have really work on creating PATTERNS. Remember, repeating lines, shapes, and colors will make your art so much more interesting because people will have more to look at! Great job. I hope you keep practicing. If you do , your drawing skills will continue to improve. Great job. Be sure to add an artist statement to all of your work. You can do that from home, just follow the instructions. Tell me what you LOVED the best and why. Happy creating!

You have done a great job using the element of art LINE to show movement. Wavy lines for the water, zig zag lines create the icebergs and those swirls made some really fun slippery slides for the penguins to play on! Your cutting skills are improving too. Cutting the corners off squares to create a more rounded shape does take practice. Also cutting triangles for beaks and feet takes practice too. Love your creative penguins. What fun this lesson was. Love the gentle snow fall too. Great work painting with the q-tips! You have achieved all the standards......but remember to keep practicing to improve cutting skills even more!

WOW what a wonderful polar bear all dressed up and ready to celebrate. You did a great job of putting together basic geometric shapes to create this project. You used circles, triangle, semi circles, semi ovals just to name a few. You have achieved the standard of putting geometric shapes together in a unique and creative way to make something new. Your coloring skills are also really getting better. Kudos to a job well done. I hope you enjoyed learning about these basic elements of art, line, shape, and color.

Very good! You have achieved the standard of identifying and drawing a composition using basic geometric and freeform shapes. These elements of art are the building blocks in learning how to draw well. Another standard of learning how to "fill up the paper" with good composition is also evidenced here. Your use of crayons and fine motor skills in how good you color are also improving. What wonderful art you are learning how to create. Keep up the fantastic work. You have grown much in your artistic development. You are becoming a very good artist!

You achieved the standard of creating an artwork that is related to a theme. Our theme here was Fall Trees. Using your knowledge of lines, colors, and shapes, you created a wonderful picture that really does look like a beautiful fall tree. You now understand warm and cool color families too. Great work. We will continue to use these Elements of Art in all projects. Keep up the good work.

You all did an amazing job! Your drawing skills are getting better each week. I am so proud of how you blended colors too. These apples look good enough to eat!!! I hope your families enjoy these wonderful Still Life Drawings! Be sure to add comments about what you liked the best and what you learned when making this project.

Piet Mondrian would love how each one of you created a wonderful painting in the style that he created. These are so beautiful. Each one is special and original. I am so proud of what good artists you are becoming.

What fun we all had exploring PAINT and finding out what magical things happen when primary colors mix! Your paintings are truly beautiful. We will paint more in the future. You can add any comment you want to your exhibit from home. Great job!

This was just the best project. I love hearing my little K artists continue to sing and dance the Freeform Shape song in the morning as they greet me in the hallway. I feel certain you have heard it at home too. Remember, putting content to music and rhyme improves retention of any content material. Hugs

You all made this project really "pop" with the addition of your tissue paper flowers! So nice to add texture to your paintings. Great work everyone. I am sure we are going to have very happy mommy's grandmother's , and aunties for Mother's Day this year.

What a GREAT monster! You did a super good job. I know that you had fun. Love you lots.
