We went on a Waynflete bus to the Fore River Fields with our K-1 buddies. When we got there we went in the woods and played with snow. Vivian and her buddy built a snow fort and Casey and her buddy were slipping and sliding on ice. Max and his buddy worked on a snow fort too. A bunch of people rolled down the field hill. It was a sunny, warm day. It was a lot of fun and we hope we go back there with our buddies in the snow again.
A few weeks ago, we started creating self portraits. We learned about Romero Britto and his style , which includes patterns, bold lines, bright colors and simple designs. We all added food into our Romero Britto-inspired self-portraits because we are telling people about ourselves and our favorite foods. We are doing a study called Local Foods and we are adding foods, sometimes in repetitive patterns, to our portraits. We hung the portraits in our classroom and now we can see the similarities and differences in our class. By showing our favorite foods others can relate and connect to us. We assembled the foods into bright patterns and divided the sections with thick black lines like Romero Britto. We also hid other things we like into our self portraits. We put as much detail as we could into the pieces to show our identities. After we finished them, we mounted them on black paper and hung them on the wall. We hope you like them. This is our first blog post of the year and we work...
