Day 13, Painting the Wall

The Edge is a peculiar elementary school it is just a different atmosphere than Savage.  on some days that is really a good thing on others it can be trying and frustrating.  Finally we are starting our first project with the all of the classes are seeing today.  With our third and fourth graders just like at Savage they have started a self-portrait project to gauge their growth over time.  However in the afternoon I am starting a new project with the first and second graders called the Exquisite Corpse.  My cooperating teacher read a copy of the Salvador Dali book from the series getting to know the world's greatest artist and I proceeded to introduce the project after that.  This is a project that forces the students to work collaboratively throughout the assignment since the drawing will be done in three parts by three separate students. I have high hopes for this well see what day two of this project yields.  During our principle directed time we got the wall painted for the mural that we are planning on putting up.
