1st grade Line Sculptures

​

This week, 1st grade artists wrapped up the school year with a fun and colorful paper sculpture project inspired by art teacher and creator Cassie Stephens! Students explored the exciting world of line by turning flat strips of paper into standing 3D sculptures full of loops, curls, zigzags, and bends.

Using bright paper and their creativity, students learned how lines can move in many different ways and how artists can make artwork pop off the page. Each sculpture was attached to a bold black-and-white line background, they made with big Sharpies, helping the colorful forms stand out even more.

This lesson was the perfect one-day project to celebrate all the creativity, problem-solving, and artistic growth our 1st graders have shown this year. The classroom was filled with excitement as students experimented, built, and proudly shared their unique designs. We are so proud of these young artists and all they accomplished this year!

3rd grade burlap sewing

3rd Grade Sewing & Fiber Arts

Our 3rd grade artists have spent the past few weeks learning the basics of fiber art by sewing with yarn on burlap! Students practiced patience, hand-eye coordination, and creativity as they carefully stitched their designs one piece at a time.

We got our inspiration from Cheryl at Teach Kids Art! You can check out her blog here. 

Here's what you need:

Yarn       Burlap      Needles       Scissors

For this project, students used colorful yarn and simple sewing techniques to create a work of art on burlap. They learned how to thread yarn, stitch through burlap, and use different colors and lines to add detail and personality to their artwork.

This project was a wonderful combination of art and life skills. Sewing encouraged students to slow down, problem solve, and persevere through challenges. Each finished piece is unique and shows the hard work and creativity our young artists put into every stitch.

We are so proud of our 3rd graders for trying something new and creating such beautiful fiber art masterpieces!

Night of the Arts 2026

 

🎨 Night of the Arts

Our Night of the Arts was a huge success! We had an amazing turnout, and it was so special to see our school community come together to celebrate creativity.

The hallways were filled with beautiful student artwork, proudly displayed for families to enjoy. Our students were beaming with excitement as they shared their creations and showed off all their hard work.

Families had the chance to stop by the photobooth, take pictures with Roary our mascot, explore the instrument petting zoo, and enjoy wonderful dance and choir performances. There was something for everyone, and the energy throughout the building was truly unforgettable.

Thank you to everyone who came out to support our students and the arts. It was a night full of creativity, joy, and school pride! 🐾
