Lafayette artists are learning about the power of the arts to transmit joy, transform sorrow, change minds, and heal hearts! In Lafayette’s art studio classroom we are not only learning about the elements, principles and media of the visual arts, but are using the arts to gain a greater understanding, depth and richness of language arts, math, science and social studies curricula. We are hoping learning in and through the arts at Lafayette nurtures lifelong learners and creators!

Exploring the Magical Art of Printmaking

Third graders excitedly try their hand at bubble prints, shaving cream swirled papers and vegetable prints! 
At the bubble station...Step 1- blow bubbles
Step 2- create your monoprint
Repeat with multiple colors!
Our printmaking guru? Student teacher Ms. Johnson! 
This is just our first step as she prepares us to make collaged accordion books. 


Creating a shaving cream monoprint
Our inspiration artists? Ezra Keats and Eric Carle!
