The 1<sup>st</sup> grade leaves look great and the line projects turned out awesome. It’s fun to see so many projects hanging on the walls of the school.</p>
<p><strong>November’s concept is Shape</strong> and the students will be learning the difference between Geometric Shape and Organic/Natural Shape. The 4<sup>th</sup> graders will be making their clay projects this month and we’re looking forward to see the masks they will make.</p>
<p>If you you’d like to volunteer please look up your child’s teacher and contact their coordinating parent. Working with Art in the Classroom is a great way to meet the children in your child’s class and enrich their learning with Art. As always, volunteers must have current background checks with District 624; please contact the school office to fill one out.</p>
<p>I found this quote the other day and wanted to share it with you:</p>
<p><i>“In math there are rules. In spelling there are rules. In a child&#8217;s art? There shouldn&#8217;t be rules.”</i></p>
<p>Have fun with your students and projects and thanks for your continued support!</p>
