Prospero and Miranda 2!

Today Ms. Martin's former student David Schrader came to our school for another visit! Since we had started on Prospero and Miranda, he decided to help!-------

David painted the inside of Prosperso's sleeves with spray paint (no cut and paste involved) and also started a staff for Prospero made of bamboo!

Since the staff isn't quite done, here are some pictures and close-ups of Prospero's sleeves.

I personally think it's really cool that he only used layers of spray-paint.

So hopefully we can get to work on our last cut-out board! We'll send out new pictures soon!

There's nothing ill can dwell in such a temple:
If the ill spirit have so fair a house,
Good things will strive to dwell with't.

Prospero and Miranda!

We have begun to work on a new character board of Miranda and  Prospero. Here is a student hard at work smoothing out the edges. 

  

Getting Things Framed!

We are finally getting things framed for the Mendel Art Gallery exhibition! The exhibition runs from July 3rd to August 19th. There is also an opening reception July 11th from 6:30 to 7:30 pm. It is free for anyone to attend! Now here are some glimpses of what will be on display.

Above are all Shakespearean houses 

 And below are a sampling of Shakespearean shoes.

So we hope you come out to the Mendel Art Gallery sometime this summer to see our artwork!!!

Proof of banner

We have a proof of the banner. It is not to scale but it is exciting to see it on the correct material that it will be printed on.

Learn your ABC's!

Hey viewers! We have got the grade one alphabet book for you today!! They worked super hard on these. Hope you enjoy! These are actually going to be made into a large book, and the grade eights are helping the kindergartens make these into a huge book, much like the E.L.O book, and the grade fives costume book!

Awwwwww, the drawings are so cute!

So say I, madam, if he run away away, as I hear he does:

the danger is in standing to't, that's the loss of

men, though it will be the getting of children. Here

they come to tell you more: For my part, I only hear

your son was run away.

All's Well That Ends Well, Clown, Act III, Scene II.

Liz Hartman

Ok, so here we have two pictures of yesterday when Liz Hartman came to talk to our class!

She told us about how the banners are put up and what her job is like, being an Urban Planner for our city!
