LACMA


We had our first field trip of the year today, and overall it went quite well. A big thanks to Faith's father for walking with us, as well as several parents from room 18 who helped.


The children has the opportunity this year not only to observe artworks, but also to use a sketch pad as a way to focus their attention on specific elements of the art such a line, light, color, or shape. Each group looked at different artworks, but I believe we all had an opportunity to look at David Hockney's famous Mulholland Drive shown above. I was impressed at the insightfulness of some of my students comments as we walked through the gallery.

The weather was pleasant, and we came back just as the bell was about to right.

Home Studies: Finish any work not done for Monday's homework.
