We learned about birds and how to make a sculpture, but all the birdies in their nests flew home before I got any pictures....
Finally, we saw how much we changed and grew as artists over the past year by comparing our first and last drawings:
I'm so proud of all my Kindergarten artists! I have some things I'd like to tweak in my curriculum for next year, but we made a LOT of art together this past year!
