WEEKLY HIGHLIGHTS

PRESTON

Preston learned about color alteration in his digital media arts class.  He had to select certain items in the photo and change them from one color to another color.  He learned a lot about changing some items without changing the entire photograph.  

Color Alteration

MARISSA

Marissa read "Black Stallion" for book colloquia this month.  Marissa loves animals and wants to be a vet (or a nurse) when she is older.  She loved reading the book and participating in the book discussion with her peers.  She loved reading about the bond that Alec and the horse form while living on the island and the fact that Alec refused to leave the island without his horse when he was rescued.  

CALEB

Caleb made a picture of a volcano from the book "Pedro's Choice."  It was part of his language arts' curriculum.  Caleb doesn't like art very much and really has to push himself to complete the art projects in the book.  I'm so proud of him and the grit he showed to complete this project to the best of his ability!
