Happy 2019!

Students in first grade are also learning about the artistic process and creating "choice" works of art of their own design:

Second grade learned about how line can show movement, as well as creating patterns through weaving an Ojo de Dios:

Some students liked this technique so much that they created their own at home:

Students studied OP Art artists and created more patterns using complementary colors:
