Secret World of Arrietty

The middle school students were able to watch the studio ghibli film The Secret World of Arrietty and create artwork inspired by the movie. I wanted the students to see a more current film. This is a sixth grade work in progress.

3rd grade portraits

This is an example from the third grades's introduction to portraits. These are 20 minute drawings.

4th grade bear portraits

These are two examples from the introduction to portraits the students received where they were to create portraits of teddy bears.

Ananias's Hippo

This is a fifth grader's 20 minute observational drawing of a hippo. I want to get more students to draw things from real life.

Lauryn's Egyptian Hippo

This third grader rose to the challenge of creating an Egyptian hippo. This is a 20 minute drawing. This was not a directed drawing, it was an observational drawing.

Sphinx

This is a fourth grade 20 minute drawing of the sphinx from the Egyptian Unit. More students are trying to incorporate shading into their work.

My 3rd grader made a great rendition of a girl looking into a fish tank
