Carnival of the Animals!


In collaboration with Mr. Burns' music class, the First Grade classes created art that illustrated Camille Saint-Saens' Carnival of the Animals. First, the students used a "paste paper" technique to add color and texture to white paper. Then, they designed the pieces of various animals and sculpted them together to represent the animals in Saint-Saens' music. The animals were crafted by the following classes: Birds: Mrs. Camilla's Class. Elephants: Mrs. Jenny's class. Lions: Mrs. Rachel's Class. Mules: Mrs. Laura's Class. Roosters: Mrs. Jessica's Class. Fish: Mrs. Karen's Class.
