Week of May 18-22: Artful Thursday #6: Making Memories! (Part One)

Hello! Please start with this short video from Mrs. Kane, Michelangelo and Oso the Dog:
We are living in a historic time! This week, you are invited to make some memories in one of these ways:

1. Make an ART TIME CAPSULE! What is a time capsule? It is kind of like a treasure chest for your memories, thoughts and feelings that you save for years and and years and open on a special day in the future. Here are directions about how to make a time capsule! This week you can create your box and start collecting things. Be thinking about what are some things are interesting or different about this time. This could be an activity for your whole family! Next week we will share some ideas for special art that you can create to put inside your time capsule.

2. Be a FORT ARCHITECT! An architect is an artist who designs buildings and spaces. You can draw your dream fort, or build it inside with cardboard boxes, blankets and comfy pillows, or build it outside with materials from nature.

The yearbook design slideshow will be up next week. We LOVE seeing and sharing all the artwork that you are creating! Here is a gorgeous Ansel Adams photo by Petra that I missed posting!
