This week we learned more about art. We sketched and water colored self-portraits. We learned about Vincent Van Gogh and painted a still life of sunflowers using thick paint like Van Gogh. Ms. Fallon also highlighted Van Gogh and the kindergartners created their own Starry Night oil resist and water color pictures. We then moved on to a more contemporary artist, Jackson Pollock, and emulated him by marble painting with cool colors- blue, green and purple. The kindergartners have been enjoying learning about these artists and having the opportunity to go to a center table and move about the classroom a bit. After vacation we will be learning about Edgar Degas and Pablo Picasso.
