Fourth graders in Ms. Sanchez and Ms. St. Germain’s classes at Lyseth Elementary School recently participated in a Side x Side program led by teaching artist, Jill Osgood, that was integrated with a science and literacy unit on nature and animals. From home, students studied and drew animals and then set out to hunt for natural materials to create a temporary environmental sculpture using found natural items such as leaves, sticks, bark, flowers, and rocks. Once finished, the sculptures were photographed and shared for everyone to enjoy!
