Caught Doing Art

Sixth grader Ana Starbeck has been caught doing art! Check out those fingernails! I spotted this walking art project in class. Ana said she painted her fingernails white, added rubbing alcohol, and pressed on small pieces of newspaper. What a great idea Ana!  



1st Grade Self Portraits

First graders at Southdale have been working hard on these self portraits! We started our project by folding our paper and talking about the proportions and fractions of the face, this way everyone drew their eyes, nose, mouth and ears in the right location. Next, we looked in mirrors to add personal details like freckles, glasses, and earrings. Finally we used markers and crayons to make these drawings come to life!
