The Pre-K students have been busy being artists this week! We are so lucky to have art class in the art room with Mrs. Mueller AND EC art with Miss Webb. 

In art class with Mrs. Mueller this week, the children created self-portraits. They learned that a portrait is a picture of a person and a self-portrait is a picture of yourself. They were able to choose their skin color, clothing, and hair color and then added some extra artistry of their own. Look at these mini-masterpieces that are now proudly displayed in our hallway!

In Miss Webb's art class, the students have been learning about mosaics. They know that they can create a mosaic by making a picture by taking small pieces of paper and gluing them into a pattern. They also learned that there are "shades" of colors and we can sort them from darkest to lightest. The class made both a Pre-K mosaic and a HCA mosaic that are hanging in our classroom. Stay tuned for the class of 2034 mosaic!

Thank you for helping prepare the children for show and tell today! They did a fantastic job presenting and sharing their favorite things!

On Friday, September 27, the topic for show and tell will be "my family." Please send you child in with a photo (or a drawing) of your immediate family to share with the class. Help your child prepare to name each family member and share one thing you like to do together.

Beginning in October, please have your child prepare three clues to help their classmates guess  the show and tell topics will be:

• Friday, October 4 - something that begins with the /s/ sound
• Friday, October 11 - something that begins with the /m/ sound
• Friday, October 18 - something the begins with the /t/ sound
• Friday, October 25 - something to do with fall or Halloween
