Thank you for the fun glasses Hadi !

Today my friend Toni came to do some painting with our class. Toni is a scenic artist for the theater department at the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor.

   Toni spoke about the color wheel, did a painting demonstration, and drew some pictures from student suggestions that the kids painted. Students also painted with watercolors at their desk. It was a busy day.

It was quite warm in our classroom today. The construction workers were cutting stone so to avoid the dust we kept the windows closed. The hallway however,  was quite cool.

Here are a few pictures of the kids learning about plant parts together.

And some just for fun.

It is funny how in the fall, the kids were at the window all the time watching the construction and seeing what was new.  Now, the kids totally ignore the noise of stone being cut right outside our window. Things are moving along.
