Art through Literature

Today in art we read a book called "The Dot," by Peter H. Reynolds .  It is a powerful story about a teacher who, through encouragement and support, helps a student feel that their art is appreciated and valued.  Next we learned about a famous Russian painter named Kandinsky.  He loved to work with colour and experiment with how colour can evoke different feelings.  Finally, we picked up our iPads and began to use Draw and Tell to create our own versions of a Kandinsky painting.  Please visit our individual blogs to see our art work!
