2nd Graders Start Klee City

This week all second graders start their job as city planners! After looking at an artwork by Paul Klee (pronounce clay) called Villas florentines (shown below) we were inspired to come up with our own cities.

Many students used some of Danville's local scenery for their picture. Students enjoyed putting the library, the Royal theater, and, of course, Dairy Queen in their pictures. Since this is our first week with the project we just started the drawing, but we will be adding watercolor paints and pastel in the coming weeks. These can be messy so make sure you don't dress in your best clothes! Here are some drawings that show the beginning stages of our project.
