THE ELEMENTS OF ART

The elements of art are sort of like atoms in that both serve as "building blocks." A similar activity happens when the elements of art are combined. Instead of hydrogen, oxygen, carbon, etc., in art you've got:

·         line

·         shape

·         form

·         space

·         texture

·         value

·         color

Artists manipulate these seven elements, mix them in with principles of design and compose a piece of art. Not every work has every last one of these elements contained within it, but there are always at least two present.

LET'S HAVE A LOOK TO THIS VIDEO, EXPLAINING THESE CONCEPTIONS:

ABOUT THE SEA...

This year at our school we are going to work on a Project about "The Sea" and, to start in a funny way, let's have a look to this video were we can sing Jack Hartmann. His songs are one of the best in educational children's music

This song titled Five Little Fish focuses on basic addition and basic math skills using finger play.

Here you have the lyrics:

Hold up your hand – move your fingers to the beat

These are the fish swimming in the sea

When we start out let me see just one

Whoops say “hello” means another fish has come

One little fish swimming in the sea

Splishing and a splashing rockin’ to the beat

Here comes another fish, whoops say “hello

Two little fish swimming in a row

Two little fish swimming in the sea

Splishing and a splashing rockin’ to the beat

Here comes another fish, whoops, say “hello”

Three little fish swimming in a row

Three little fish swimming in the sea

Splishing and a splashing rockin’ to the beat

Here comes another fish, whoops, say “hello”

Four little fish swimming in a row

Four little fish swimming in the sea

Splishing and a splashing rockin’ to the beat

Here comes another fish, whoops, say “hello”

Five little fish swimming in a row

Five little fish swimming in the sea

Splishing and a splashing rockin’ to the beat

Five little fish swimming in a row

Let’s wave good-bye ‘cause whoops there they go

Let’s wave good-bye ‘cause whoops there they go.

LET'S START SEPTEMBER !

It's school time again!

You are probably feeling excited and maybe a little sad that summer is over

Some kids feel nervous ora little scared on the first day of school because of all the newthings:new teachers, new friends and maybe even a new school.

Let's start with the ABC's RAP
