Fourth Grade Art

December 12th, 2007

I have been busy climbing a ladder and looping tape these past two nights hanging nocturnal creatures in our library.  They look fantastic!   Check out our BubbleShare Show below.  A nice display can be found on a ceiling arch over the nonfiction books.  The emergency lights cast a soft glow on the chalk washed art.  Stay tuned for a VoiceThread about our artwork.  This kind of artwork would be the perfect background for a voice narration of animal facts.

In September our fourth graders visited the library to research the habitat and physical characteristics of a nocturnal animal in New York State.  Not only did their notes help them create an accurate drawing to scale, but they learned about the wild animals living in their backyards, at Indian Meadows, or just a short drive away in the Adirondack Mountains.  

Bravo Fourth Graders!
