Apples in the Atelier

 Today was our day in the Atelier! We brought our Apples and Honey theme with us and used apples to paint.  We talked about what colors apple can be and then used those colors to make creative paintings.  We rolled, dipped, hand painted and finger painted to create a beautiful masterpiece together! 




"Do you like to paint?" "Yeah!"


"Apple!"

"Do you like to paint?" "Uh-huh!" 








"What color do you want?" "Green!"

Here is our very own apple painting!


Everyone is getting more comfortable exploring our specials spaces. Our friends enjoyed exploring all of our wonderful materials in the Atelier and decided that our paint sticks were really fun to color with while using the easel!







In our classroom we worked on Rosh Hashanah crafts while talking about a sweet new year! We hope you enjoy the sweet surprise your child will bring home closer to the holidays. 








Today everyone was all about art exploration! We explored watercolors at our art table in the classroom.  Friends found it interesting that this paint was dry when we opened it. We enjoyed mixing water into the palette and experimenting with different color combinations.
