1st Grade "Where the Wild Things Are" Creatures

First graders took on the roll of book illustrators by creating crazy creatures inspired by Maurice Sendak's Where the Wild Things Are!

Our creatures are all unique and wild! We used patterns and a watercolor crayon resist to fill our creatures with crazy colors! Since we all loved the part of the book where the Wild Things have a 'wild rumpus' we decorated our creatures with construction paper party accessories!

These came out so fun!

Wonderful wacky work, 1st grade!

2nd Grade Fantastic Felines

Laurel Burch was an exciting artist who loved to paint colorful, patterned cats! Students in the 2nd grade loved learning about the playful subject matter of her work! We created a watercolor crayon resist to fill our cats with bright, beautiful colors!

Wonderful job 2nd grade!
