Mrs. Pauley's Kindergarten are learning a lot about color in Art right now. They were introduced to Primary Colors (red, yellow, and blue) and how they mix together to make new colors. To demonstrate how two Primary colors mix to make Secondary Colors (orange, green, and violet) the student participated in a Color Handshake project. 
We talked about in what situations you would shake hands with someone. Then students were paired up. They greeted each other with a handshake and then chose one of the Primary colors to be painted on their hands. They then shook hands once more mixing the two Primary colors to reveal the Secondary color they made. Students then printed their hand onto a large paper so we could see all of the color mixing!

    Friday is a great day for me - it means I get to come see all of my Willard friends!
    This year I'm teaching Art to Mrs. Pauley's, Mrs. Jacobs', Mr. Rittenhouse's, Ms. Bahnks', and Mrs. Baker's classes. I'm disappointed to not be able to teach all of my young Willard artists this year - But at least I get to see them in the hall as they pass by the art room!
