Inspiration and Drawing Studios Open!

There are too many things to list about how much I love this candid shot last week!  Someone takes "diving" into her art quite seriously in the background!  
Kindergarten friends finished their class "Peace" books and their pinwheels.  Remember next Monday, the 21st, is the International Day of Peace in which our pinwheels will be on display on the front lawn of the school for "whirled" peace!

Busy! Busy!

This school year is off to a great start!  Children have been working on making their portfolios to store artwork in and pinwheels for the International Day of Peace on September 21st!  
He is very proud of his coloring job!  If you notice in the background there are two new things!  I was able to obtain a booth from a wonderful family in Westlake this summer aka "The Creation Station" and a new wooden portfolio rack.  The portfolio rack will make student portfolios readily available to the children when they want to add to them. I was able to make this purchase with funds from our Artsonia account!  When parents purchase items from Artsonia, a percentage of the money goes into an account to help supplement supplies.  Thank you, parents!
Also our third kindness wreath is hanging on the door waiting for ribbons!  When the children are caught doing an act of kindness for each other in the studio, they might be invited to add a ribbon to the wreath.
The wreath from last year now resides in the library and the one before that is in Mrs. Brockway's office.  I am looking forward to a fabulous school year!
