Happy National Anthem Day!

We celebrated National Anthem Day today at Ford. The students have been having a blast learning about and singing the National Anthem in music class. We decided to create "National Anthem" American Flags in 2nd and 3rd grades. Check them out; they turned out beautifully!

Welcome 2012-2013 School Year!

We have had a terrific start to the new school year. Here is a glimpse of one of our favorite beginning of the year projects:  Kindergarten Tear Bears! The kindergarten artists talk about shapes, fuzzy edges and learn about using "just a dot, not a lot" with the glue during our Tear Bear project. Stay tuned for our Square One art fundraiser coming this fall! The artwork is already in progress and everything is looking fantastic!
