the second semester of this year olivia had the opportunity to participate in kindergarten REACH. it is a pull out program once a week for 1.5 hours. she worked on higher level thinking, problem solving, and also did an in depth study of the brain. she loved this class and really looked forward to it each week. the last several weeks the students studied the "creative side of the brain" and several famous artist. after learning about each artist and the inspiration behind their works of art, the students created their own masterpieces. on the very last day of her REACH class the parents were invited to view the artwork and take a "gallery walk."
olivia was very proud of her work. she was able to explain the inspiration of each piece and how it was similar to the famous artists that she was mimicking. of course, mark and i thought her work was the best!! :)
now these pieces of art are filling the walls of our playroom. olivia is so proud that her art is on display in our house and they make me smile each time i see them. i know they will be pieces of art we will treasure forever.
