The Artist

Words can not describe how amazing the Bedford Montessori School is. Most people say that Disney World is the most magical place on earth but Emily knows that her kindergarten is really THE most magical place. I could go on and on but this post (and several more to come) is focused on the art program and art show. The Kindergartners work every Thursday on the most wonderful art projects. They begin in September and continue thru April when the art show begins. The children work in small groups, and sometimes one-on-one, with the director to create all types of art. Emily's favorite project was making the endangered species mask. Each child had to pick an endangered species as his/her subject and create a mask. The masks were made of clay and paint. This project went on for several weeks and finished by making a haiku poem about the animal.
The second project in this post is the kaleidoscope picture. Each one was so unique, just like a kaleidoscope.....amazing.
