Classroom Highlights!

We had another busy week in Room 101. We learned continues our mini-art unit building on our color mixing and line study. This week we learned about Claude Monet and Vincent VanGogh and emulated their painting styles. We read a few books about their artwork and we watched a short video Linnea in Monet's Garden. We also sketched and water colored self-portraits. 

Another exciting addition to our classroom is our new high school intern, Miss Nash. She began her 5 week hands on learning opportunity with us.  All are excited to have Miss Nash with us!  Miss Nash will be a freshman at the University of Massachusetts, Dartmouth in the fall and she may study education. Hopefully she will have a great learning experience with us! Miss Parnell (aka Lindsay, Mrs. Parnell's daughter) is also doing an internship at Pine Glen. She is working with Mrs. Visocchi's and her 4th graders. This means we will be seeing Miss Parnell on Monday mornings when we continue our animal study with our 4th grade partners. Miss Parnell spent Tuesday morning with us while the 4th graders took their MCAS test. The students enjoyed having her in Room 101 again.
