We are learning about Mental Health. We started with brainstorming a list of emotions. The next task was to think about how different situations make us feel. Students created one-panel comics to demonstrate how situations can lead to specific emotions.

This art project began with the book, “A Perfect Day” by Carin Berger.
We enjoyed the story and then got to work examining the illustrations. We looked at how the artist created shadows using shading techniques. We looked at shapes and how the artist created movement.
Then it was time for students to begin creating themselves. They started with the background, creating a snow angel using white and blue paint. Then, they created a person. They put the two together and added some paint splatters to mimic snow. The results are amazing!
