Ashley Tenesaca<br />
Grade: PreK<br />
School: PS 128, Manhattan<br />
<strong>Art</strong> Teacher: Suzanne Egan<br />
Tempera on paper<br />
STUDENT: I like making colors. I like<br />
orange everywhere. I like painting<br />
with orange and I have big windows<br />
in my home. This is my home. My<br />
home is far away.<br />
TEACHER: PreK students were<br />
learning about their homes with<br />
their classroom teachers. In the art<br />
room they were learning to paint<br />
expressively with primary colors. In<br />
art class, to combine and reinforce<br />
each learning experience, they used<br />
tempera to paint their homes. They<br />
looked at homes of other artists and<br />
discussed how they would represent<br />
their own homes.<br />
Ashley’s use of paint and her color<br />
choices led to an expressive artwork.<br />
The windows are unique and painted<br />
carefully. Ashley is such a natural<br />
when it comes to painting. She<br />
understands colors and puts thought<br />
into where each color should go. I<br />
love how the house stands out from<br />
the background with its warm colors.<br />
