Playing rhythms!

Today 3rd graders got to perform their own made-up rhythms during music class and then play them on the steel drum.  Such fun!!!!!                                                                                                                            

 

 

 

 

 

 

Responding to DRAMA!!

 This week, every grade level is watching a movie excerpt from recent kids' movies and are then choosing their favorite character and designing makeup for him/her. I've had some really wonderful makeup designs completed!!!

STEADY BEAT!!

 Here is 2nd grade learning all about keeping steady beat by playing it on their knees with bean bags. Whoopie!!!

5th grade Salsa Dancing!!

Look at them go!!  This is a group of my 5th graders dancing  Salsa to Gloria Estefan.  These are our future "So You Think You Can Dance?" contestants!!!!  Just remember....they learned it here (at Central) first!!! 

Making our vegetable collages!

Maddie is using her new "car" scissors and cutting geometric shapes to make her veggie collage. 

Lines, Lines, Lines

 Students show their designs using all 3 kinds of lines - curvy, straight, and zigzag.

This was the class where we got to choose which one we wanted to attend; I chose the ceramic salt cellar.  We actually got to make two of them - a bigger one and a smaller one.  They turned out sooo cute!!!  We will be using these when we study 3D forms and/or still lifes.
