Huge Eco-Thanks to the guys at The Decoder Ring!




1st graders are so excited about the collage project they are working on! Following a study of artist Eric Carle, students collaborated on printmaking and sorted their whimsical paper creations into color families. They used tissue paper, newspaper and recycled prints from the design team at The Decoder Ring to create out of this world insects! Stay tuned for completed work.:)
