At BES I'm teaching seven art classes Pre-K to fourth. I also teach the whole student body on a rotating Art schedule once every three weeks. This allows me to teach and bond with all of the students at BES.
I reside at BES on Wednesdays and Thursdays.
At KES I teach the entire school Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays. K-2nd grade have an extra rotating art class every week. This allows my students to create many wonderful works of Art.
In Pre-School we are always exploring new ways of how to use different types of art media. Soon we will be starting paper mache. We have already completed our clay projects for the art show.
Kindergarten through fourth grade will be working on three dimensional clay and paper Mache
sculptures.
We are trying to get ready for the annual art show. Anyone interested in volunteering to help for either
art show at KES or BES can contact me at akelsey@rsd17.org
I am looking for newspapers, you can drop them off at the front office,
Also, Fourth grade rotation on Wednesdays will be starting to create art using the maker space philosophy. The children will be working 3D sculptures using recyclables. This is something new and exciting we are trying at Burr Elementary school! The students will use this time to develop their personal design skills and express their creativity. Instead of teaching a new skill or technique during this time I will be facilitating a student lead exploratory learning environment. We are very excited to explore the possibilities of this program.
We need any recycleable materials that are clean.
Please drop them off at the school during school hours.
