Midwest Sculpture Initiative Field Trip

Midwest Sculpture Initiative Field Trip

All fifth grade students will have the opportunity to take part in a field trip at the Ford Performing Arts Center. The Dearborn Art Department wrote a grant that will enable our students to create recycled sculptures, view the local sculptures on display in the city of Dearborn and write poetry that relates to their experiences. This is a free trip, all we need are lunches and imagination! Thanks Dearborn Art Department!

STAND/City Beautiful

STAND/City Beautiful

I am combining STAND with City Beautiful this year! There are so many clubs at Snow that there are not enough days for everything!

We will meet in the art room on Wednesdays after school from 3:40-4:30. STAND and City Beautiful will be on the same day this year, our projects will overlap and we will work as one large group!
The following is a list of meeting dates for your calendar. We will never meet the third week of the month due to district committee meetings. Please mark your calendar with these dates. I hope this will save us last minute phone calls home. I have written the dates on the Master Calendar in the office, but that means our meeting will be announced on that day. This is prior notice for your planning.
January 28 3:40-4:30
February 4, 11 and 25 3:40-4:30
March 4, 11 and 25 3:40-4:30
April 1, 22 and 29 3:40-4:30
May 6, 13 and 27 (May 27 is our last meeting!) 3:40-4:30

Students are free to come to all meetings or to elect only STAND activities- which we are doing right now, or just City Beautiful activities- which will start when the weather breaks.

Kindergarten Art News at SNOW!

Kindergarten Art News at SNOW!

Hello Kindergarten Parents! News from the ART ROOM: I am doing an alphabet book with your child during their art time each week. Some weeks we will do one letter, and some weeks we might do two. Since there are 26 letters this will be pretty time consuming. Students will bring their book home when it is finished and can be a keepsake of their kindergarten experience. We will take breaks from time to time to fit in some seasonal or other appropriate art work. I just wanted you to know that they will not always be bringing home something from the art room until we finish our book. Questions? Please email me:
zecharj@dearbornschools.org
Many Thanks- Jo Anne Zechar
