Stamp by Kieran C. |
Fifth grade artists honored the legacy of Dr. Martin Luther King, jr. by designing a postage stamp in his memory. Some students used a portrait for their stamp design, just as Kieran drew with his amazing likeness of MLK. The words in the background are from his famous speech. Our critique in class was filled with comments about how long it took to transcribe all those words as well as how well he captured his image.
Other students chose a more graphic look and some used alternative materials to compose their stamp, as Courtney did below. With Courtney's stamp, students noticed the contrast of her design and the wonderful symbolism behind her dark and light color choices.

As always, I am impressed with the artistic ability of our 10 and 11 year old students. Mrs. Levine stimulates the best in our children.
