Remote Learning Art Supply Suggestions...

 Welcome back to an exciting year of creating at Ridgebury and Farmingville Elementary Schools!

 I am so excited to see all of  my art students both in person and virtually. 

If you were wondering "Should I have any art supplies at home?" and "Which ones would I need?" 

I have you covered. 

Below I have offered some guidance on what some of our most popular supplies are along with some links. These links are offered as guidance and by no means does this exact item need to be what you end up with but these are brands and supplies we use regularly and I know them to be of good quality. 

So...IF you are remote learning or interested in purchasing your own personal set of frequently used art supplies please see the suggested list below for guidance. This is not required but an option. The art supplies can be kept at home during distance/remote learning or go back and forth to school with your child. 

*Links have been provided for some items for you to reference only.

FES Community: Hearts Across Ridgefield

💕Hearts Across Ridgefield

Mrs. Penney would like to share information on a community project we are doing across the 6 elementary schools. Participation is optional. If your child or entire family would like to participate in it please read on:

💗We are calling it Hearts across Ridgefield

💗We are joining communities across the nation to share our own messages of hope, unity & kindness.

💗You can create one heart or a bunch.

💗You can make your hearts out of different materials. To hear Mrs. Penney talk about it and see some examples click here.

💗You can put them in your windows or on your door but if your home can’t be seen from the street maybe consider putting them on a mailbox or in a tree.

💗Images of the hearts can be taken with your child's chromebook and put directly on out Farmingville 💕Hearts Across Ridgefield PADLET. 

💗For instructions on how to add your photo and use PADLET click here.

💗The Link for the PADLET is here.

💗Students can also access these links in thier google classrooms under Classwork/Other Resources.

Have Fun!

Guided Drawing...Rocket Ships!

So I went live a week or so ago on IG (@the_artroom_at_fes) and did a tutorial on how to draw rocket ships. Some of my kiddos may have missed it and so, as promised I wanted to recreate a little something like it so all of them could check it out. 

Here you go!

Will You Accept the Challenge?

21 Day Drawing Challenge....

Hello Farmingville Community. Today at school I started to put together a worksheet for a 21 day drawing challenge. I finished it from home this afternoon and am so excited to be able to share it with you here. 

Here's how it works: Each day you draw the prompt for the day you are on from the sheet. You don't need any fancy supplies...a pencil or a pen and a piece of paper...that's it! 

I am going to try to follow along too and will be sure to post mine on instagram @the_artroom_at_fes. 

Feel free to bring your drawings in and share them with me when we return to school. 

Parents...this isn't just for kids...in case you were thinking of that in you head.
