Creative Creations from our Students

Photos by Kate Tessman

Pencil and paper aren’t the only ways to create art. A growing artistic fad at my school is bracelet making, specifically bracelets made with small colorful rubber-bands. These handcrafted bracelets are designed and created per request by several of my students, and for many are great ways to show individuality, support of a sports team, or pride by wearing their native country’s colors.

Two students and their corps member model their new bracelets.

Wordless Wednesday: New Year Wishes

We asked students to write their New Year wishes and resolutions on construction paper snowflakes. We were very proud of the students whose resolutions involved improving academically or behaviorally.

“I will do better at not throwing paper on the floor!”

“All day recess. No homework.”

“My resolution is no homework, better portions and taste of food.”

“Eat good food.”
