Our third graders just finished their monochromatic self-portraits in 3/4 poses. As an extension to this project I asked them to create a 6 word poem about themselves. These became their artist statements on Artsonia and the words they would use along with the Wordfoto app to create a new digital piece of art. They turned out beautiful!

I don't want to spend my whole class period teaching students to login to my dropbox, fish through my folders, and risk accidentally deleting or moving something important to find the image they need. So I found a new way to quickly share out images using the dropbox WITHOUT students logging in. It gives me all the flexibility of sharing out images on the fly without and risks. View my tutorial below to see how it works. Don't have Dropbox?

I entered these (see gallery) for consideration into the Illinois Art Education Student Show Exhibit. Only 40 pieces from the entire state are chosen for this year long traveling exhibit. Congratulations to all 20 finalists for creating such amazing pieces! The judges chose one Dryden piece for the traveling exhibit... Congratulations to Kenzie for her Wish for the World in Wordfoto piece, "Play". Learn more about how she made this piece of art from an earlier post. She will be honored at the awards ceremony in Lisle, IL in November as her piece joins 39 others to travel the state! See this video from last year's winner, Kristelle, to understand how truly special this art show is for children. Third graders were challenged to create a four letter wish for the world in the style of Robert Indiana's LOVE image. Then, they composed a short statement explaining their choice. The art and the text were combined using an iPhone/iPad app called Wordfoto. This app puts the words into the image in an artistic way. Take a close look at these wishes below and you can not only see their four letter wish, but also read within it their reasons why they chose this word and it's meaning to them. Please compliment these artists on our online gallery on Artsonia. Find their work: Look at the original artwork gallery here. Look at the Wordfoto gallery here.
