VA.B.1.1.3: The student knows a variety of purposes for creating works of art. Collaborate with each other to complete a handmade piece of art Kindergarten does Kandinsky The Kindergarten students were introduced to the art of Russian painter and art theorist, Wassily Kandinsky with an exciting lesson that involved the fusion of art and music. Kandinsky, himself an accomplished musician, claimed that when he saw color he heard music. Each student was given a 6 x 6 square piece of tag board and a set of oil pastels. The students were asked to draw circles, like those of Kandinsky, while listening to various jazz compositions. Kandinsky theories of music and art can be seen through

6 these gorgeous compositions. The students were able to communicate both the mood of the music in conjunction with their emotions through their use of color Pop Hearts This mixed media piece was made by our kindergartners using colored cardstock, scissors and glue. Students created these modern hearts while learning about negative and positive space as well as symmetry. The hearts are embellished with silver tone brads and studs. They are mounted on foam board and diamond tread aluminum. These colorful hearts represent the love and enthusiasm our kindergartners embody Hand Print Resist Our kindergartners made this beautiful piece as they explored various mediums to create a dynamic composition. Students were prompted to draw their hands in pencil and then trace in Sharpie on cardstock paper. The students then colored in the entire paper with oil pastels. Each piece was painted with black tempura, and students scratched the surface using incising tools. This created the wonderful texture and movement you see. These beautiful compositions were then mounted on foam board. This is a playful piece that mimics a classic chalkboard There s No Place Like Home Collage Houses These collage houses were made by our kindergartners. Each piece was constructed using various recycled paper materials such as old book papers and scrapbook materials. Students explored symmetry and design as they composed their collage pictures. They reinforced their knowledge of shapes and lines while they cut out intricate details to make their beautiful houses. These eclectic homes are an excellent representation of our vibrant kindergartners! Collage Kinder garden Kindergarten explored the world of Eric Carle and Wassily Kandinsky. Both artists used geometric shapes to convey bright and bold compositions. Students have been introduced to collage and have created beautiful flowers in the style of these artists. Each flower was constructed using symmetry and decorative papers. They reinforced their knowledge of shapes and lines while they cut out and outline their flowers. These assorted flowers are an excellent representation of the collective spirit that encompasses our growing kindergartners Warhol Hearts Our talented kindergartners were exposed to the artwork of pop artist, Andy Warhol. Students viewed and discussed his simple, yet vibrant, print making style in which he used popular imagery to convey messages. Kindergartners began the print making unit as they carved their own heart design into a Styrofoam printing plate. After their design was created, students proceeded to print many times using bright colors on bright papers. We

7 experimented with various combinations until we found the colors we loved! Each heart print was then outlined in an offset manner to replicate Andy Warhol s screen printing process. The result is a vibrant composition that represents the loving eclectic nature of our kindergartners! 2016/17 - Title: Recycled Pointillism, Reflection Inspired by Pointillist artists such as Impressionists Georges Seurat and Paul Signac, and modern artist Chuck Close, kindergarten students used recycled container tops to create a decorative collaborative mirror. Each student created a monochromatic silver paint design using the Pointillist method, which is focused on the specific style of brushwork used to apply the paint. Pointillism also refers to a style of 20th-century music composition, known as Punctualism where notes are played separately, mimicking the pointillist painting style. 2017/ Title: Black and White and Grey All Over Value deals with the lightness or darkness of a color. Since we see and understand objects because of how dark or light they are, value is incredibly important to art. Kindergarten students learned about value and mixed their own grey tone as a background, then they ragged on a contrasting white. To complete the piece, each child painted three simple geometric shapes of their choice on top. The result is a collaborative value study in grey. Revised: January 2018
