Kindergarten does Kandinsky

 In class we talked about the musician and artist, Wassily Kandinsky.  We looked at a few of his paintings and discussed the different shapes in them:  circle, square, triangle, and rectangle.  As a class we talked about what abstract art is and our emotions associated with color.  During the painting process we listened to classical music to set the mood of our emotions to help us concentrate on using our fingers to paint mathematical shapes.










Check out the beautiful work the boys and girls have created!

The field trip to the farmer's market was SO much fun! Stay tuned for more pictures :)

What has been going on in room 3143?

We have been working on our 5 senses in science!

We learned all about the sense of touch!

We did a collaboration with our science teacher. We did handprints that are rough and smooth.

Mrs. Williams, our school counselor, came to our class to talk to us about sharing!

"Whirled" Peace Day at school. The boys and girls made windmills and displayed them in front of our school.
