We were also lucky enough to have our picture person Mrs. Otte come in on Tuesday to teach us about the work of Wassily Kandinsky. What a wonderful and interesting artist he was. 

We used this painting of Wassily Kandinsky's to inspire our work. We focused on using colors to express our moods. We talked about how dark colors express unhappiness or anger and brighter colors express cheerfulness and joy. 

The students used oil pastels and water colors to create their work. They turned out amazing!!

Here are a few pictures of the students working on building their fluency through partner reading. 

While reading together, they work hard on their expression, pacing, and reading the story more than once.

This type of practice is enjoyable for the students and really helps to build a more fluent reader.

Enjoy!!!!!
