1st Grade Suns


1st Grade


First grade students talked about the importance of the sun and its prevalence in artwork around the world. They looked at Mexican artwork that featured suns that were inspired by the traditional Aztec sun. Here are some of their suns that feature some of the same characteristics of Aztec Suns.

The first day of school


Kindergarten students talked about their feelings on the first day of school. They learned that lines and colors can show feelings. They read a book called "The Kissing Hand" and drew and painted how they felt on the first day of school.
