Art with Mrs. O'Neill

Friday September 21st was the International Day of Peace, which Rossview always celebrates by creating a large "Pinwheels for Peace" Art Installation. This year we sung "A Song Of Peace" & did sign language led by our music teacher Ms. Smith. It was a beautiful celebration and was captured well by Clarksville local media. For more information on how to do this project at your school or organization go to www.pinwheelsforpeace.com You can see more about Rossviews project on the following sites: http://www.clarksvillenow.com/pages/14300675.php?imageGalleryXRefId=2975044#imgXR http://www.clarksvillenow.com/Elementary-Students-to-Display-Pinwheels-for-Peace/14279544 http://www.theleafchronicle.com/article/20120921/NEWS01/309210025/Pinwheels-Peace-planted-Rossview-Elementary?odyssey=tab|topnews|img|Frontpage http://www.cmcss.net/focus/?startVideo=249

So, schools back in session & I have been working on new displays and fun ideas to organize the art room. Every year it gets a little easier as I find ways that work & weed out the ones that don't. Our school has the most fabulous custodial staff & I feel as if my room is so clean right now it shines! Let's hope as the creative process begins it stays that way!

We had a wonderful annual art show at Rossview! Each grade level does a different continent & this year our front foyer was an "international airport" my room was the food court & our baggage claim was the list & found, everything looked great! Here are some of the pictures....
