Art From Scrap!

The second grade enjoyed our first field trip of the year to Art From Scrap and we were thrilled to have Mrs. Guay, our amazingly talented art teacher, join us on the adventure! We were greeted at the entrance by Veronica, our wonderful Explore Ecology chaperone and tour guide, as well as Scrappy, the store mascot pup. We learned all about renewable and non-renewable resources and how to best reduce, reuse, and recycle them in our daily lives. After the presentation, and some fun stretches and brain breaks, we ventured to the crafting area where students were encouraged to use any and all materials to create whatever their hearts desired. Among the unique treasures, second graders crafted wind chimes, dolls, hats, jewelry, decor, models, and even a back scratcher!
