One of our friends conducted an experiment making an apple volcano! He chose his lava color to be pink and enjoyed watching the chemical reaction as he used a dropper to add vinegar to the baking soda.
Great job!
Throughout ESY, the students had fun learning about an artist named Keith Haring; take a look at their artist inspired creations! Students used a variety of art supplies, including paper mache, and different textures in their art.
Happy Monday!
A beautiful start to another summer week - make it a good one!
It's National Ice Cream Month!
Did you know that July was declared National Ice Cream Month in 1984? Class 14 read about the history of ice cream, followed a recipe, and got to make fresh vanilla ice cream! Cooling off on these hot ESY days!
Enjoy the weekend - and grab some ice cream!!!

During May, 2w learned about Paul Klee and his artistic style while also reviewing shapes and colors. Students learned how multiple shapes can be put together to form pictures and how an artist can use colors to help the viewer experience different emotions. The final activity was to use tangrams, colored shapes of varying sizes, to create a unique piece of art. Hope you enjoy the work!!!!
A Message from the Hawkswood Staff:
We miss you, we cannot wait to see you!!
Families - thank you for your outstanding work and partnership, always!

Here is one of our students with his US flag that he made during an OT session for Memorial day. His dad adapted the blue square with Post it notes, instead of coloring it.
We SO appreciate our families and their help more than ever!!!!
It is certainly a year to remember!
