Check out the stunning work from Mr. Soto’s Art Encore class! 🤩🌟

Students recently wrapped up an impressive, multi-step project where they moved beyond simple drawing and dove into complex design techniques like collage, stripes, weaves, and notches. ✂️🧵

These pieces aren't just art—they're dimensional, layered compositions requiring meticulous planning and creative integration of elements. We are so proud of the skill and craftsmanship displayed by our emerging artists! 👏🙌

🌟 Fourth-grade authors are in the house! ✍️

Students in Mrs. Solvsberg and Ms. Campbell's classes completed writing pieces about personal identity! They explored what shapes them as individuals, connecting their self-discovery directly to essential storytelling skills. 🧠

Our young writers crafted incredible narrative pieces, focusing on the five core elements of a great story: Character, Setting, Plot, Conflict, and Theme. It's amazing to see them connect their personal journeys with masterful writing! 🎉 #102Impact #D102 #EveryDayEveryStudent
