A Feast for the Eyes

In preparation for the Thanksgiving holiday, our students made their own placemats that they will use to mark their special spot for The Kids’ Place Thanksgiving Feast! Our art discussion was focused on the ABAB pattern, which reinforces what the students are learning with their classroom teachers. Emphasis was placed on color and shape patterns and how artists use patterns to create interest. The class discussed Native American symbols and had the chance to embellish their place mats with original imagery. Yum!
