In the classroom: Peanuts

As the Peanuts had been studying Art and Artists even before this amazing art installation, we felt lucky to be able to visit the chapel and check out what an artist had created in a space so near and dear to us at PIC!  The Peanuts had already begun lots of open ended play with cutting, wrapping, tangling, and untangling string, but Ci-Lines gave us both the idea of creating shapes with string (which we did during morning meeting as a whole class) and to add string to our doll house and cardboard play pretend house as we’d seen it in the chapel.  The Peanut’s idea of what art can be and what artists can create expanded deeply through this art instillation and the play that followed.
