My Project

Our Elementary School hosts its annual Spring Art Exhibition, the Ice Cream Social, with a focus on Tropical rainforests this year. Each grade level will have a dedicated project and these materials will help students succeed. Many of the projects will include 3D sculptures, paintings, illustrations, 3D mixed media, and projects made out of recycled materials. We will use crayons, pastels, acrylic paint, watercolor, and graphite as some of the media. They will also learn how to frame their artwork properly using mat boards and construction paper for an exciting showcase in May!
