Haley's Character Project/Story
One day an ordinary girl was sitting at the poolside. One day a superhero also known as the Fashion Police appeared. She went to the ordinary girl and said "You are in violation of fashion."
The ordinary girl said "But I am in my bathing suit."
"I don't want to hear it. You are going to fashion jail," she said.
"But why?"
She just said "SHHHH."
The ordinary girl spent four years in fashion jail. She was released and went shopping and they all lived happily ever after.
Bence's Character/Story Project
The Clam Soldier
Wind blew hard. The soldier walked across plains of Tennessee. He was trying to survive.
Suddenly the clam soldier woke up in a hospital. He sees his left arm missing. He turns his head forward and he sees a doctor talking to his wife. The doctor turns and walks into the room. "You have stepped on a landmine clam," said the doctor.
His wife walks in crying. She calms down and gives him a hug.
The next day he walks out of the hospital. He and his wife get in the car and drive home. They went into their house and ate a delicious dinner.
What the Art Lab Kids had to say!
After spending much time viewing and considering the Jeanne Verdoux exhibition: Mr. Bones and Friends - a few of our Art Lab participants wrote their own art reviews:
Haley
Age 10
What I like about this one is Mrs. Bones. What I don't like is the dead bird. I like Mrs. Bones's dress. I like her hair. I also like her face. Mrs. Bones makes me happy and the dead bird makes me feel gross.
Bence
Age 11
I like the pictures and the characters.
What I did not like was that there were not many pictures.
Jacob
Age 7
It's cool.

A great start and more to come!
We started this year looking at the Samuel Bak Exhibition and making our own Shofars( a horn that rings in the New Year for Rosh Hashanah) and also worked on Illuminated Letter pages. New this year the students are invited to lead a project and Jacob did the first one- making paper characters and performing an impromptu play.
