Ms P's art lesson

 Ms. P introduced Room 5 to Henri Matisse.  She taught them the correct way to say his name.  I learned something new, too.  I had no idea his name was pronounced the way it is!

 They looked at examples of his work....


 Ms. P had done an example of the project Room 5 was going to do.  She showed this to Room 5.


 There were strips of different colored paper for the students to choose between....
Once they had their strip of paper and their background piece, they were ready to start creating their shapes.



 Ms. P was there to offer suggestions...


 As you can see, hopefully, it was also CRAZY HAIR day!





 It was fun to see the color combinations Room 5 came up with.













What a fun lesson...and we definitely learned a lot about the art of Henri Matisse!
