4th Grade Group Portrait

Each 4th grade student drew a small self portrait that was cut out and added to a cartoon drawing of our school.  I reduced the size of the image on the copier and every student was able to take a drawing home...... not to mention give one to their classroom teacher as a gift! Here is what they created!
Mrs. Hall-Lykens' Class

Mrs. Dick's Class

Mr. Boger's Class (this shows how we taped them down before copying)

Mrs. Cannon's Class

Mr. Wallace's Class

1st Grade "Tree of Life"

Here is a 1st grade artwork created in the style of Gustav Klimt's artwork, "The Tree of Life"

Welcome to Mrs. Short's Art Class Blog!

Welcome to my new art classroom blog! My name is Lisa Short and I am an art teacher for grades
K-4. I LOVE TEACHING ART!  It is so fun to work with creative kids everyday. They tell me so often about how I inspire them but it is really the kids who inspire me!

On this blog I will share all the latest news from my classroom, great elementary art lesson ideas, the student artwork of the week, current art shows, and much more!  Check back often to see what our students are creating! Have a great day!
