Micahs' Masterpeices!

 We have been talking about snow all week long and today we had a lot of "snowy" material out so we could make our own snow scene colleges.   Charlotte and Molly came over first and had fun cutting and gluing the paper in neat shapes to look like snowflakes, they made beautiful art and then left the table for snack. While they were working I made my own snow scene and then left it on the table.

When I came back I found both the Michas working really hard on creating their own similar snow scene. When I asked Micah Rosin about his creation he said, "it's like the one that you did but different, I liked that you had a snowman with three circles so I did that, but I wanted to have a sun so I made two!" I love that none of the art that was created today looked like what I made, I don't want kids to try to create the same things as  a grown-up, their work is often SO much more creative! However, I loved that Micah Rosin saw things that he liked and incorporated them into his work, and saw things he didn't like and choose to not use those aspects. I was also impressed at how well
both Micahs paid attention to detail!

Well done everyone! Beautiful colleges all around! It is neat to watch how the class responds to new choices in media!
