REACH Art 2 students have been hard at work creating their own books! Students in Mrs. Caputo's room are learning about the Element of Line, how it creates EVERYTHING. These artists use their gained knowledge of line to be authors and illustrators of their own short stories- using line to write words, number pages, draw pictures, and design their hardcovers! After days and days of working students were finally ready to present their art in a "coffee shop book club" in the Art room, featuring soft jazz and a cozy atmosphere.
