This month we have done a lot with music and art together. We have painted 'community' pictures by painting to Musical Chairs. We have also had music on in the background when they are painting their own paintings and/or drawings. We have discussed how music is all around us and how we feel while listening to music.
The children were exploring with watercolors and using different objects to
paint with. They did this while enjoying some music in the background.

The next few pictures shows the children interpreting a still life
of a bouquet of flowers. They have been focusing on colors and
how to make certain marks on their paper.
Here is a sample of how the children were drawing a person, but they did so by adding onto each other's picture. When the music was on, they were drawing, when the music stopped, they froze and then rotated on to their friends artwork. They worked together very nice.
The same 'musical chairs' process was done, only this time they were collectively painting rainbows. Each child started with one certain paint color and they had that paint color the entire time. The rainbow was complete when they ended on their original piece of art.
Here the children were working on using chalk to represent
the texture of a still life pineapple. They had great focus and
each had a different technique and outcome.
