SCSF art

My SCSF art class comes to art for 40 minutes, but is split into two 20 minute classes. The first group that comes are my kindergartners which consist of 4 children and their para professional. When the kindergartners leave art, the second group walks in which consists of 1st and 2nd graders. There are 6 children total and 4 para professionals. Most of the children in these classes are non-verbal and communicate via IPad. Below are some of the projects we've done over the past few weeks.

 Children finger painted a large piece of paper with red finger paint mixed with a texture medium. After their paper was dry, I cut it up into pieces and the child glued the pieces onto their flower.





Children made a Mondrian inspired piece with precut red, yellow and blue construction paper. They finished by gluing black vertical and horizontal lines over the top.

 I taped each child's initial onto a piece of paper and the child finger painted with red, yellow and blue finger paint. Once the paint was dry, I took the tape off to reveal their initial

Children had two open-ended art projects: a mixed media collage using glue and Do-a-Dot markers to create a piece of art.

  Children used liquid watercolors to cover their paper then we painted their hands for a handprint on the top.

Children created a Kandinsky inspired piece of art. The one on the left is from one child in the 1-2nd grade class who looked at one of my examples and copied some of it. The one on the right is from the same class and the child used watercolors first then glued black lines on top. Very different skill levels within this class!
