Art: Spooky Shadow Stories

An "art crit" in Pre-first involves a lot of storytelling.  Today, we walked around the large shadow paintings and students described the creature in the work and its special characteristics.  Some were monsters who blew bubbles or made scribbles.  Some were slime goblins that transform slime into playdough and befriends the animals at the zoo.  Then, they described where the creatures live: forest, woods, jungle, and haunted house.  The girls did the details of their backgrounds in white oil pastel and will paint over it in black India ink.  Ask your daughter about her creature!
