On February 14, 2014 Art City Elementary School Sixth-grade classes held an old fashioned "Sock-hop" to celebrate Valentine's day by exploring what it was like in the Fifties.  There was Karaoke, picture booth, musical chairs, "50's" Trivia, hand jive and line dance, not to mention all of the treats.

Mrs. Morgan's Kindergarten class had the opportunity to draw and color a self portrait.  Mrs. Morgan said, "I use it mostly to reinforce how even though we all have two eyes, a nose, a mouth, two ears, etc. no one looks just like us—we are all unique.  One of our social studies standards is to recognize differences and have respect for each individual.  We used mirrors to look at the colors and shapes of our features.  I taught them how to use shapes to form their faces and shoulders.  Then we used oil pastels to color our portraits.

Mrs. Morgan's Kindergarten class at Art City Elementary School has been studying nursery rhymes to help the students review rhyming. Mrs. Morgan said, "We have read and reread nursery rhymes to develop fluency, read sight words in context, and experience another type of text.  We also had many teaching points with vocabulary such as curds and whey and full score.  I had the kids prepare a rhyme to present on Nursery Rhyme day to help them develop their speaking skills—to speak audibly and clearly.  The students could dress up or bring a prop to add to their presentations.

Inspired by Ms. Patti Parker's Third-grade class, Art City Elementary now has a "Friendship Bench."  This is a bench that students that don't have anyone to play with or are feeling lonely to go to; other students will come and invite the student to join them or they will sit and visit with them. Way to go Ms. Parker's class!
