Art to Remember and Primary Colors

Kinders learned about the PRIMARY COLORS (red, yellow, blue) and being introduced to artist Lichtenstein. Students received star shape tracers, drew diagonal straight lines and decorated their picture using other lines and shapes. After designs were made on the paper with oil pastels, students painted over the top using liquid watercolors.


These masterpieces will be used as our Art to Remember project. Art to Remember is a company who makes keepsakes with your child's art. More information will be coming home the last week in September. 20-25% of all orders hopefully will be used to bring back visiting artist/musician, Michael Bashaw in the spring to work with the children on a permanent installation piece for the school.

Collage Art

We started off the school year with a no-fail lesson on COLLAGE! Students received a piece of cardboard and a large variety of items to collage. They learned how to use glue correctly, saying: Just a Dot, Not a Lot along with learning the importance of cleaning up after themselves by sorting unused items back in their correct trays.

Welcome Miss Due

I am starting off the school year with a student teacher from Miami University. Her name is Kenzie Due and students will be calling her Miss Due. Miss Due will be observing my teaching for a couple of weeks and then she will start teaching parts of each lesson until she takes over teaching full time. Miss Due will be at MECC until October 20th when she will go to her next placement at Mason Middle School.
