Arts Week Project #2

Today's artist was Henri Rousseau. We made jungle prints by painting the backs of leaves, laying them on the paper, covering the paper with another piece, and going over it with a rolling pin. Then the kids added flowers or drawings.


Abby made muffins, Anna helped make chicken pies for lunch, Abby and I read Old Bet and the Start of the American Circus to go with Mirette and talked about compound words and vocab words. We listened to our Mozart CD and Thomas listened to some chants. I helped Anna make a new dresser scarf and we shelled butterbeans.

A pretty good day!
