Responding to Art

Today for Art class we taught the kiddos how to respond to the work of others. We talked about how different art pieces make us feel different things, what we may see/hear/feel/smell/taste if we were to actually enter the artwork, and we spoke about the different lines that can be used in art. We set up a gallery in the teacher conference room and had the kids go around with post its and write how the piece of art made them feel. It was a fun learning experience which all of the children enjoyed.

I also just need to brag here for a second.....

So did you like that piece of art? Well our very own Mrs.Costello is a very talented artist. If you can believe it... this piece is made entirely out of plasticine! What will I do when she leaves?! :)
