Tuesday, April 21st

We are starting to gain inspiration for the spring art show!  We will start by painting interesting materials and see what inspires us from there.  Today we looked at what it’s like to paint on plastic vertically.  We also indulged an urge that the majority of the class has seemed to enjoy exploring since the beginning of the year – putting paint on our bodies.  For some time now, it has seemed like a worthwhile experience to allow the children to indulge in this impulse.  It would be nice to see what happens when the action is no longer novel.

We have also begun exploring a variety of spring materials – today, potting soil and seeds were introduced.  Tomorrow and Thursday, we’ll take a look at the bulbs we’ll be growing over the next 6 weeks.
