Winter 2019
We have been involved in some very exciting art making!

•  PreK students across the street from Hastings at the new Westborough Early Childhood Center (WECC) have been creating pinatas and using stamps and textures on kiln clay to create unique name plaques.
• Kindergarteners have been learning about organic shapes and the difference between shapes and lines.
• First Graders have been learning about how artists like Miro use shape and line to create Surreal and abstract art.
• Second graders have been creating colorful emotion monsters and translating their creations into 3d form in sculpture.
• Third Graders have begun drafting their Victorian House pictures and have been learning new Architectural terms for the parts of a building.
• Fourth Graders have been creating elaborate 3D forms from flat paper.
• Fifth Graders have been learning about contour line and texture in a shoe drawing.  
• Sixth Graders have been using watercolor to create fantastical galaxy skies and serene still lives.
