Knit Together in Learning

Here we are doing fabric art - and learning to sew a straight line!  We each made one row of ten squares for our class quilt.  And even though every row is different, when you put the whole thing together, it is beautiful!

Swimming in a Sea of New Knowledge

In our painting unit for art we experimented with different watercolor techniques.  For our sea turtle project, we used salt to help the wet colors bleed into each other, allowing a flowing water effect, like that created by swimming turtles.  Check out some of our Wow! work:

Spring Gardens

Someday, this work will be famous....

Butterfly Art

Butterflies have made their way to our grade one garden.  Look at some of the beautiful specimens we caught...

Must be spring!

Artistic Inventions

We've been working in groups to design geometric masterpieces.  Here are some worthy of the highest honors...

Bulletin Boards

We are very proud of the work we do in grade one.  This is our artistic depiction of Mrs. Thomson's grade one garden.  We are growing and blooming in the sunshine and rain of Magrath Elementary School.  And the best part is, our garden is better because we are all different!

This is the bulletin board we made in our color unit.  It shows our experiments with mixing the primary colors to get secondary colors.
