The Kitah Daled children are storytellers. In every part of their play they are telling a story.

This week’s art exploration combines the children’s interest in paint with the thread of reflection.

This week’s fine motor art exploration was Yarn Painting.

This week’s Atelier experience combines sensory exploration with the thread of painting.

Continuing the thread of Self Portraits, this week the children made their image out of yarn!

Most recently, the Kitah Alef children explored charcoal. This continues the thread of fine-motor art.

The latest in Kitah Daled’s self-portrait exploration are watercolor portraits. The children were each given a sheet of watercolor paper, a watercolor palette, a paint brush, and a mirror.

The children’s interest in Nature and Sculpture led us to this week’s provocation.

This week’s experience continues the thread of transparency while adding the new interest in paint.

This week Kitah Alef was presented with half sheets of watercolor paper, circles of bright tissue paper, cups of water, and paint brushes

This week the children were offered the experience of watercolor painting.

Our most recent foray into portraiture was inspired by giant googly eyes Morah Jessica came across at an estate sale.

The Kitah Daled children have many threads of interest. We wanted to honor as many of these as possible by reflecting them in the menorah project this year.

Strong threads of interest in Kitah Gimmel this year are building and sculpture.

Kitah Bet’s menorahs were inspired by a recent collage project. 

Fine Motor development has been a strong focus in the Atelier with Kitah Alef children. They have also shown a strong interest in paint.

Recently in the Atelier, the children have been exploring paint. They are very curious. They want to feel the paint and even taste the paint.

This week they were offered tempera sticks, dot markers, and glitter glue to decorate canvas boards.

Kitah Daled children spend a lot of time drawing. They  are often found at the drawing center in their classroom.

Morah Adi offered sheets of woven cardboard for her class to make into place mats for the Thanksgiving Feast.
