Circle and color compositions inspired by Sonia and Robert Delaunay in conjunction with science studies of motion and forces
Composition, color, form, and technique all played a role in the third grade's first project of the year. Whereas every other grade level is beginning the year with large-scale, month-long projects, third grade is on a mission with color to be completed in two beautiful classes. Medium was at the student's discretion as they crafted compositions to evoke motion and force in response to science studies while echoing the work of the Delaunays. Perfection is not the goal here, though I would say that many of the projects are perfection in my eyes.
Two things that tug my heart: children singing and children pressing against their creative boundaries and reaching levels.
