Today was a busy busy day in the whole school. We have most of the children back at school since the big snow storm on Monday. We have introduced some new and exciting activities in the Oak room. One of these activities is painting with bright colors. However, instead of using paint brushes, the children got to use clothes pins and pom pom balls to paint with. Children were able to take the clothespin and pinch a pom pom with it. After they had the pom pom attached to the clothespin, they were able to pic a color to paint with and get started. This was an exciting new way for the children to explore materials that can be used in the art studio.
