Grants!!
Thanks to the South-Western City Schools Educational Foundation for the following grants:
 Digital Photography in the Art RoomFor Mrs. Melissa Forney, Art Teacher
This project is a request to obtain twelve digital cameras for an elementary art classroom. The cameras will be used initially for an anti-bullying project. Students will shoot photographs of their peers. These photographs will then be uploaded to Word Publisher in our computer labs. Students will add positive, encouraging words to the photographs of their classmates thus creating an atmosphere of collaboration and friendship while integrating with the language arts curriculum. The cameras will also be used for the students to upload their artwork to the Artsonia.com Web site and for further art projects.
You can see examples of the second grade landscape photography here:
Due to privacy, the anti-bullying photography is not available online at Artsonia.
 Common Core Interactive Read Aloud and Thematic Unit ProjectFor the 2nd grade teachers: Mrs. Gottshall, Mrs. Wood, Mrs. Heinmiller and Mrs. Helton
Students will read and learn about a wide variety of topics that build a better background knowledge base. In addition, they will read and learn the meaning of higher level vocabulary which builds a better knowledge base. Students will practice applying the skills and strategies they learn from the comprehension lessons. This cross-curricular language arts project will meet a variety of course objectives and the Common Core State Standards. It will be coordinated and monitored by second grade teachers. All second grade students will participate.
