Kindergarten

Kindergarten students will be starting out the year learning about different kinds of lines and how combining them can make shapes.

Students have been practicing lines and will soon begin to make some projects with lines and shapes.

The first artist that the students will learn about is Henri Matisse. He is famous for his many paintings and bright colored cut paper collages. His collage, The Snail, was done after he was confined to a wheelchair, and is done with very large colored squares. You need to use your imagination to see the snail!

Students will use their own imaginations to make an image with large colored shapes, just like Matisse did.
