Stop-Motion Animation Projects
Our students in grades 4-6 had their first chance to explore stop-motion animation. Some knew the basics of the process, but for most this was the first introduction to the idea. We discussed how many photos played after one another create the movement of the video. The students worked in small groups and the goal was to try to create a video with some continuity of motion and a plot or theme. Below are some highlights.

January - Chasing Miró
Students viewed the artwork of Joan Miró, a pioneer of Surrealism. We discussed the elements of art that were apparent in his work, specifically color, line and shape. We discussed that to create work in his style, those elements would have to be the central theme of the work. The students used different mediums to put their own spins on Miró's work. How do you think they did? :)
November Printmaking
In November we opened the printmaking studio. Primary grades worked on styrofoam marker mono prints. They created their art and then printed by putting pressure on damp paper over their styrofoam writing plate. The students were so excited to see their results and the slight changes that occur in texture with printing. Our upper grades did linoleum relief printing. They dug into the surface using a scratch stick and then they used a roller and ink to prepare their plates for printing. They were amazed with the results and to see how the prints turned out. They all did a great job - looking forward to what they make next in printing!
