Eric Carle Portraits - 3rd grade

Using the papers we painted using intermediate colors, Third Grade learned the proper placement of facial features by creating a portrait.  I gave them a pattern to trace for each head.  Next they made their hair and then added eyes, nose and mouth.  As you can see, each students used their own creativity to do the rest!

Big Art Day 2014

March 5th 2014

This was the first year for the Texas Art Education Association to have a "Big Art Day".  " The purpose of BIG ART DAY is an art happening to raise awareness of art education and art as a creative force in our communities on a BIG statewide scale.  It is an attempt by the TAEA (Texas Art Education Association) to engage all art educators, their students and communities in a single day art event."

Each student at WVE drew and colored a self portrait on a sticky note.  Then we put them together to form, "peace, love, art".  The kids love looking for their portrait.
