Bringing Home Art

Students have been working very hard on their artwork. I am almost ready to send home their masterpieces. My hope is to send home the collage, Kandinsky line, Kandinsky circle, and Mondrian next week (October 13-15).

To help encourage critical thinking and develop critical thinking skills, ask your child open-ended questions about their artwork (instead of saying "good job" or "that is beautiful").


Below are questions you can ask.

1. What can you tell me about your picture?

2. What materials did you use?

3. What is your favorite part of the picture?

4. What title would you give your picture?

5. How did you...(make the lines, decide on the colors, etc.)
6. Do you remember the artist who inspired this art?
