Visual Arts
Classes 6A and 6B started the year off in Visual Arts with a collaborative artwork. Without knowing what the final artwork was going to look like, each student was given a segment of this famous artwork. They then learned to scale up their drawings try and replicate their piece as exactly as possible. Students helped put their pieces in the right place to create the final work. They were very happy with the big reveal!
