Mrs. Lawson loves end of the year portraits! All grades do beginning of the year and end of the year portraits; it's a great way to see how students have grown artistically. Students work on the studio habit of "observe" while looking at themselves in mirrors as well as the studio habit of "develop craft." These are just a few examples from fourth grade. You can check out your child's online portfolio on Artsonia: https://www.artsonia.com/schools/school.asp?id=95141 #TAB #tongienation #usd464 #teachingforartisticbehavior

TES art teachers honored Remi Lynn (5th grade) and Joseph Templeton (4th grade) for being our two BEST Fine Arts Night tour guides. They were helpful to parents and students as well as knowledgeable of both where things were and Artomé details. We thank them for all their help this year and hope for more awesome helpers from 4th and 5th grade next year. 💕
