day 27

My students and I are working with an artist/photographer as a part of a program called CoTA - Collaboration of Teachers and Artists. Renee, our artist, will be working with us for a series of five lessons (one per week) for about an hour each time. Our plan is to read different versions of the story, Cinderella and to create pieces of assemblage art which show the symbolism and uniqueness of each story. Last week, my students and I read The Korean Cinderella and today, with Renee's help, created this piece of art. It needs a few finishing touches but the kids were so excited about what they had created. I can't wait to see the finished product!
