Mosaics, Ceramics, Music, and More in Session 3!

It's day 3 of the third session here at Spree, and all of our classes are in full swing! This morning, I stopped in to check out what Andrea's been teaching in the Kids' Ceramics Studio before heading over to the Red Group's classroom to see them making their own treasure maps!
The Yellow Group learned about positives and negatives in ceramics this morning by imprinting their clay projects with plants Andrea brought from her garden. Here, Margot and Sofia are paying close attention to the demo.

This afternoon, I checked in on the Red Group while they were in Emily's Music special. They were having a blast with rhythm sticks, chanting to each other "Show me how you like to dance" before each child got up and displayed his/her favorite dance move. At the same time, but in a much quieter setting, the Purple Group (grades 4-6) was learning about positives and negatives while shadowing with pencils and pastels.
