Paul Klee City Collaborative Mural

First and second graders learned about Paul Klee's painting "Castle and Sun," and created collages inspired by this painting. Click here to see this work!  Then we used cardboard scraps to construct this collaborative city mural.

US City Skylines

Third and fourth graders are studying the United States in their classrooms.  They are divided into regional groups, so that they can each become an expert on one part of the country.  Each student chose a major US city from his or her region.  We looked at pictures of the city skylines, then they recreated the silhouette of the skyline using black paper.  Do you recognize any buildings in these cities?
