Artist of the Week - Maria Landeros is a senior in art. Maria has been an art room star since the day she walked in the door. Maria has won many awards over the years here at TC for her art. She has excelled in both 2D and 3D art forms. Outside of being a student, Maria has her own business where she sells some of her artistic creations. The featured piece this week is Maria's senior tile. This piece measures 4' x 2' and will stay at school. It is an excellent example of her ability and effort. Stunning, just like Maria. She will be very missed next year, but we are so proud of all she has accomplished.

Artist of the Week - Everly Wilson is a 6th grade student in art. Students got to explore with Shrinky Dinks and had to make something functional. Shrinky Dinks are special paper that you can color and cut. When baked in the oven, they shrink to a hard, small plastic. Shrinky Dinks were invented right here in Wisconsin, in the 70's, by two Cub Scout mothers! Everly designed these two cute cat faces that she made into keychains. Her adorable design and craftsmanship made her work stand out. This is Everly's first piece as a middle school student. We are excited to see what she creates next and for the years ahead here at TC.

We had an AWESOME first day of play group at TC! Thank you to everyone who joined us! We had many new families, and the children did a great job learning the routine. After playing, we read "Mix It Up" and sang and danced to songs about colors. The kids learned signs for the colors too! They made handprints and fingerprints using lots of different colors and even had the chance to create new colors of vanilla pudding! What a fun morning! Please join us for our next play group on October 30th at 9 am. Children may wear their Halloween costumes!
