DREAMERS PREK - LEBLANC

On Tuesday 12-1-2020 we retold the story of the 3 Billy Goats Gruff! Terra Burroughs took some photos as the students acted out being the small, medium, and large billy goats and the troll! They trip-trapped across the bridge to the meadow to eat the grass after bumping the troll into the water :) Link to 8 Pictures

TRAVELERS 2ND GRADE ART - COSTANTINO

Mr. Costantino often introduces students to an art project by referring to well-known artists and their inspirational work. In this case, he showed them self-portrait work by Vincent Van Gogh and then asked them to make their own self-portraits. Here are the results. It is interesting to see that quite a few added masks to their self-images.
