Longleaf teachers had a blast at the Whole Schools Summer Institute! We spent the week learning new arts integration strategies. We painted, sculpted, danced, acted, and so much more! It was a fun and learning-filled week!
 |
| This is the fabulous team of teachers that attended the event! (not pictured: April Smith & Amy Bynum) |
 |
| We learned how to make costumes using inexpensive items. |
 |
| The kids would love making these cool costumes! |
 |
| This would give the kids an opportunity to be creative and expressive! |
 |
| We LOVE art we can wear! |
 |
| We learned interesting painting techniques! |
 |
| Oooooh! |
 |
| This painting technique uses a wire screen and scrub brush to create a splatter effect! This is a great way to splatter paint AND it's not messy!! |
 |
| It looks like the stars in the sky! Cool! |
 |
| This is the finished product! I think the kids would enjoy making this solar system! I know I did! |
 |
| We learned a lot about dance and movement! Unfortunately, this is the only picture I have. It's difficult to take pictures when you're dancing! |
 |
| This is another interesting painting technique! Mrs. Waters is blowing paint with a straw to create this effect! |
 |
| Beautiful Ocean Scene! |
 |
| We saw lots of great presenters! This is one of our favorites, Kay Thomas! |
 |
| We loved participating in the culinary arts! |
 |
| Decorating cupcakes was fun and tasty! |
 |
| Creative and Beautiful! |
 |
| This is a work of art that you can eat! It doesn't get any better than that! |
 |
| These watercolors were created by one of our teachers! |
 |
| Good job, Mrs. Seagie! |
 |
| We were excited that Mrs. McCarty joined us on Wednesday! |
 |
| We had a great week! We can't wait to start using all the new strategies and techniques we learned! Our students are going to love it! Thanks, WSI! |
