Painting like Picasso

Mrs. DeGraaf taught a great art lesson today on Picasso's portrait technique.  The class followed along and made beautiful faces in the Picasso style.  After we created, we shared how art makes us feel and noted many different emotions and opinions.  Learning about great artists and responding to art all help Kindergarten student to appreciate art.  We're grateful to be at a school where we can created art regularly and tie it into multiple subjects.  "Picasso's view of anatomy was interesting".
At Bible time this morning we learned more about the Good Samaritan and how to show love to those in need.
We took our weekly sight word quiz and then built sentences from words.  The class is getting better and better at composing and reading sentences. 
At story time we talked about recognizing fiction from fact.  Our story was fictional or narrative today, because many of the animals could talk.
When our 8th grade friends came down, we read books together and ended with a dance!
In math we used the minus sign to make subtraction sentences.
At the end of the day we played a vowel game, place value game, colored and built structures.
Well done, Kindergarten!
