The first day is over, and was I ever wiped out by the time I drove home. The kids were so much fun and they were all excited about the project.
The one below was started in our last period of the day and interrupted by a fire drill, complete with firemen. Luckily the teacher of that group volunteered to let them finish them tomorrow in their regular class. I think this child may have gone to Florida with the sand and water and palm tree.
The 2 afternoon groups had great imaginations. We told them to draw something that reminded them of spring.
I love the one below with the clouds and birds lined up in rows.
This pink house was nice change after passing all of the subdivisions of gray and beige houses on my way there.
The one below has the raindrops in the sky and a beanstalk going up to the rainbow.
This one had to be the most original drawing. I don't know that it reminds me of spring but this budding artist just went for what he liked to draw, when so many others had a hard time deciding what to draw. In the break between the 2 classes in the morning and 2 in the afternoon I ironed the first batch to remove the excess wax. They used Roseart instead of Crayola brand and they worked very well.
I will meet with 4 classes tomorrow and have to leave at 7:15 a.m. so I won't post again until tomorrow afternoon.
