We read the book, "Leonardo the Terrible Monster" by Mo Willems during art class. Leonardo tried to be scary and mean to Sam. After seeing how sad Sam was, Leonardo decided to be a good friend instead. Leonardo and Sam are both happier being friends. They only scare each other to be silly now.
1st Grade artists made friendly monsters in honor of Leonardo.
This lesson was inspired by the "Wild Things" that 1st graders at Dryden Elementary School made. We watched the video "Visual Texture"
http://vimeo.com/9284044 by Tricia Fuglestad to learn about the many ways artists can use line to create texture.
Dryden Elementary School artists http://bit.ly/bVZOE1 are going to be our "Artsonia Comment Buddies" this year, along with Lowes Island School http://bit.ly/q4U7sP and Greenbrook School http://bit.ly/nnm0dr artists! We will be visiting their online galleries and sending comments to our buddies during art class and they will be doing the same for us!
