NUTRITION MONTH ART

We celebrate Nutrition Month school wide during March. As you enter our school you are greeted with giant fruits and vegetables that make you smile and encourage you to eat 5 or more fruits and vegetables daily. 

In the cafeteria we have new art displays done by students in Mrs. Taylor's and Mrs. Hall's art classes. First and second grade classes used large pieces of brown paper  from Ruth's Recyclables covered with  fruits and vegetables. The students used craypas for some and other classes decorated paper, just like Eric Carle then cut out and collaged the fruit/veggie shapes. Third, fourth and fifth graders participated in the two murals, "What's in your lunchbox? Student groups identified the five food groups and healthy fresh foods. 

Fourth  and fifth grades did the drawings, painted with tempera and enhanced the paintings with oil pastels and third graders cut and arranged the pieces with "What makes a good composition?" in mind.

Enjoy the pictures and check out the blog later in March to see the other ways we highlight Nutrition month at FES.
