Works of Art #41 - School Year End Edition

Yes, yes.  I know.  I am behind again.  But at least they are getting up on this blog!  I will admit, I had quite a stack.  So better get to it:

 This is a book you made from the song "Five Green and Speckled Frogs."  I love frogs, so this unit was a favorite of Mommy's.
 On each page, counting down, you stamped the appropriate number of frogs. Cute!
 Name writing practice. 
 An adorable frog on a lily pad complete with water lily. 
Here's some Ms. Lynn awesomeness.  We read "A Busy Year" by Leo Lionni, and then the classes made their own version of the books.  A different page for each season made up the final product.  The above picture is your cover.
 Ms. Lynn's explanation page and your spring page.  It's neat to see your art progress through the book.  You really started to get the concept of composition.
 Fall page
 Winter page
 and your rainy spring page.
Here's a neat picture you made in class.  It's a beach.  The bottom is beige paint with sand in it, then your mosaic ocean and the top is the sky. pretty! 
 I actually had this picture hanging in my little area of my classroom.  Sunflowers, like Van Gogh.
 Some chalk and pastel art.
 Here's the lifecycle of a frog.  So cool!  You can explain the whole process.
 A stained glass cross that you actually made back around Easter.  Oops
 Ms. Lynn's description on this says, "Seascape influenced by the impressionist artists Mary Cassatt and Vincent Van Gogh.  You colored the boats and water color painted the background
 Not sure here, but it is really pretty
 Same with this mosaic
 A GREAT caterpillar you made during an Eric Carle unit
 This is probably my favorite.  Working on getting it a frame.  Also created during an Eric Carle unit
 And finally, another sunflower made in the style of Vincent Van Gogh.
 
 
You made some fantastic art this year, Bear.  It is really neat to see your artistic skills growing as you grow. 
 
Love you much,
Mommy
