Fifth Grade Crazy Guitars
Students in fifth grade looked at the work of Picasso and cubism and compared it with more realistic works of art. We also noticed that Picasso was often influenced by music and it showed in his work. Students designed their own crazy guitar, in which things could be seen from different points of view or made into shapes you would not normally see a guitar in. Students could choose their materials to color this project. We created a black and white weaving and splatter painted over it for the background. These are by far the craziest and most amazing pieces to come out of the art room this year! Completely original and creative!

Second Grade Weavings
Pretty simple....Second graders created these simple weavings to show pattern and line thickness. We first made an ABC pattern with Thick lines (papers) and then added a second ABC pattern on top with thin lines (paper). This only took one class to weave and about ten minutes of another class to glue the tops and bottoms of the strips. Very easy to do, but they look cool and were an easy way to discuss the difference between thick and thin lines.
