Dunleith students are at it again! Teaching Artist, Pam Beagle-Daresta, is captivating students' imagination using the visual arts. Spending eight sessions with five of Dunleith's kindergarten classrooms, Pam has reinforced the GA Standard, retelling a story; beginning, middle, and end through her artform. The students are working with watercolor, markers, and other materials to create the sequence of a bear's hibernation. They started with the beginning, sketching the animal eating. Next, the students created the end with the bear waking up. Finally, they constructed the middle with the bear dreaming. They were able to draw what they believed the bear was dreaming about. Stories and discussions complete the learning experience in the classroom. The students will share their stories at the end of their residency.
