Renoir

Today we worked on painting movement just like Renoir. We had to show light in our paintings. Like Jacob made a dodge ball tournament painting on his paper with stick men. Also Alexis and Lexi made a painting of two girls dancing. We first had to outline the drawing with a pencil. Then, we had go over the the outlines with paint very, very softly.

Eco Ed Science Lab In School Field trip

Today we had Ms.Jolene come in from the Eco Ed Science Lab Company. We learned about chromatography which is a picture of color. Chroma means color. We had a mystery liquid and everyone guessed what it was and these are what we came up with : marker, Germ-X, 2 votes for nail polish remover, perfume,and a dry erase marker. We stuck pieces of paper into the mystery liquid and there was some sort of liquid or something on each piece of paper. Some of them dissapeered. Some mixed with each other. We also did fingerprinting. Ms. Jolene put fingerprinting powder on our hands and then we tried to wash them and she took the black light on our hands and we tried to see who washed their hands the best. It was pretty hard!!!
