Earth day!
This year on Earth day each grade level participated in different activities to help clean and beautify our school! We made a weaving that will be hung in the school out of recycled materials and fabrics. 2nd grade decorated butterflies made out of recycled materials that will be hung on the fences around our school!

On May 19th students got to create art outside on the field with their families after school! There were 6 stations with different art supplies where kids made paper bag puppets, spin art, marble painting, paper hats and crowns and much more! We also had a face and hand painting table! Looking forward to next year!
A little about our art program
A little about our art program
Here in BCSD our elementary school art experience for your children is the philosophy "Teaching for artistic behavior" aka TAB. The guiding principles of TAB are:
What do artists do?
The child is the artist
The classroom is the child's studio
TAB is a choice-based art program where students work in media centers to create authentic, student-driven work. Students determine what their artwork is about, what it looks like, and what materials or media to use.
The learning focus is on developing student creativity, creative process, composition, communication, craftsmanship and community. Opportunities for skill-development happen frequently in different ways that appeal to the different needs, interests, and learning styles of each individual student.
To sum it up, we provide a space for young artists to be themselves, explore and express their ideas/interests/emotions, challenge themselves, discover new things, connect with each other and be creatively empowered and celebrated as they grow every day!
