Week of November 4th

According to one student, this was the "BEST WEEK EVER!"  Between the field trip to the Tacoma Art Museum, eating out for lunch, and the presentation of the evolution PowerPoints, it really was a great week in the Stingray classroom. 

Our interesting tour at the Tacoma Art Museum had the students talking about Op Art, art that tricks our eyes.  We saw some of the pieces we had seen in class and modeled our own art after, but we also some pieces that some students had trouble associating with op art.  There was a painting that looked like a photo and a 3-D piece that had images appearing out of nowhere.  Afterwards, we were able to use watercolor pencils to create some op art of our own.  Here are some pictures from our trip.



 






 









 
We also had our presentations of the evolution of our animal.  The students were very proud of their work.  Thank you to all of the parents, grandparents, and special friends who were able to join us.  Here are some pictures from this event.
