Monster Reception

Seventh and Eighth grade students have been working on creating 3D monsters for the art students at Oakdale Elementary.  A reception was held yesterday at Saluda Trail so that the Oakdale students could receive their monsters from the 7th and 8th graders.   Oakdale Elementary students came in to the gallery in front of 7th grade hall and  had a brief discussion about their part in the project and the role our students played. Dennisa Perry read, "Where the Wild Things Are" to the students. The students then moved to the sculptures where they met and talked about their work and the process. Our 7th and 8th Grade students really stepped up and showed a great deal of pride and accomplishment. They worked hard over a 5 week period to create 3 dimensional sculptures using the 5th graders drawings as a blueprint. This is not an easy task! We are so proud of the way our students really embraced the responsibility of completing these for other students, knowing that they would not get to keep them. CN2 and the Herald were both there recording the kids and their reactions. It was really a wonderful thing to witness. Thank you everyone for your help and support throughout this process!
