Hello friends,
We've been crafting, sketching and making different projects this week.
I have added photos of our days in Camp.
My favorite project so far was the fabric stamping !
Each of my campers designed their own pattern to place on a piece of fabric. I then gave them a square of rubber to draw their image on and I carved it out.
It still amazes me that sometimes an 8 year old doesn't know how to mix paint...or create colours...
BUT...it probably isn't taught at school as they have all the colours ready mixed.
We went on a couple of morning trips to local Galleries...this was fun to see their honest expressions on what they thought about the Art exhibited.
I like this piece below... "Use Less Words"...one reason I love Instagram! If you have an instagram account...come and find me :-)
Portraits...always an interesting lesson!
Maple trees giving an abundance of sap this year for Maple Syrup!
How Maple Syrup came about...
