Next week will be ART WEEK in Mr. Linnet's Class!



Please send an old shirt to school with your child either Monday or Tuesday for us to use in the classroom with paint.  They will probably get messy, so choose a shirt you might wish to throw away later.  We will begin the week learning about and making a color wheel, then move into mixing primary colors to create secondary colors, and will even try to make a class mural to put up around the school.  I hope to introduce some notable figures to art like Van Gogh and Picasso, and give the kids a chance to show off their artistic abilities throughout the week.  It will be a lot of fun, so if any of you are passionate about art, please use this week to share in the fun with your child!!

President Barack Obama visited the Boise State Campus last month...

Kids, I thought you would like to know that our President recently visited Boise State University to discuss the many ways they are promoting innovation as a way to help graduates leave BSU with the skills needed to stand out when looking for a career.  It's pretty cool that our college has caught the attention of our President.  Read more on the link below.
