ArtLink - Grades 4 and 5

Each year, AIS students in grades 4 and 5 create original artwork based on a theme. The theme for the 2016 - 2017 school year was "Teamwork" (see slideshow below). The theme for the 2017 - 2018 school year is "HighLight" where students will show a special event from their lives. Each student's artwork, along with an artist statement, is mailed to Creative Connections where it is translated and shipped to our partner countries. For the 2017 - 2018 school year, we are partnering with schools in The Gambia, Latvia, Japan and Mexico. Students from each of these countries will send their artwork with artist statements to us. We will compare how the students in other places depict the theme. We often discover that we are more alike than different!
