THE "ART"ICLE

Happy Youth Art Month!

 

Thursday March 5th is Big Art Day! Make sure your artist comes to school dressed like a Visual Artist, or Musical Artist, or an Artwork, or with a shirt with art on it (any screen printed shirt has art on it!) or a Band T shirt! Every child at Gullett is an artist so anything they wear will work!

 

Friday we said Goodbye to Ms. Galvan, who has moved on to a middle school to continue her student teaching. We wish her the best of luck.

 

This month we are glazing pottery, finishing up portraits, Picking work for the school art show and starting new things! We are all over the place and making art!

 

If you have an opportunity to visit the AISD Performing Arts Center this month look for the Gullett Art hanging in the District Art show! Students representing Gullett at the PAC:

Fourth Grade: Pascal, Emily, Preston, Julia, Zelda, Winifred, Reese, and Winslow!

Fifth Grade: Emme, Vivian, Niam, Libby, Harper, Augie, Kate, Bodie, Selma, Cora, Ember, Yali, Sam, Amber, Charlie, Davis, Lucy H., Anastasia, Griffin, Alvaro, Avery, Gavi, Madden, and Amelia.

Happy New Year!
