We are going to paint the boxes, then deconstruct them and they will be set up at the Hermitage for Fall Fest, October 4-6, 2013! So it's like a portable mural...pretty great idea.
Here's the link to the facebook page, if you're interested in going:

Sketch in Pencil of 'Old Hickory'
4th Graders outlining in black tempera paint
More outlining....
I sketched a version of "Old Hickory Reflections" a Phil Ponder print that we have in our hallway mapping out Old Hickory. I love the sentimental/historical connection and also I feel like it's creating a strong sense of community...hopefully that's happening anyways!
The 4th graders got all the outlining finished in about 30-40 minutes...it looks so bold and awesome!
I love the pieces all mixed up.
This was our drying rack...
Can you find the piece that is out of place?
Ah, fixed.
Day Two: Adding Color
We got some good ground covered today! So far two fourth grade classes have worked on our mural.
