3rd grade Entertainment Design Monsters

3rd graders have been studying the art career of entertainment design. We looked at many familiar creative works in popular culture. One that we had fun checking out was the movie "Monsters." We created our own monster designs on toilet papers rolls - another form of "junk art!"










2nd Grade Printmaking Collage

2nd Graders were able to practice their printmaking skills for a second time this year! We used round junk items to create bubbles for the background of our underwater collage. We next used CDs for Fish bodies coved with mode podge and tissue paper.

2nd grade CD Aliens

2nd graders have been recycling junk materials to create new masterpieces with their CD Aliens. We looked at how entertainment designers of science fiction movies and cartoons have to really use their imaginations and creativity to create aliens and monsters. We watched a clip from the movie "Monsters Inc." that really showed a variety of creatures. We then used CDs for the heads of our own creative Aliens!
