OUR AMAZINGLY GENEROUS SPONSORS & SUPPORTERS

WE START WITH A BOOK; WHO MAKES THE SUN RISE?

WE READ THE STORY TOGETHER

IT'S EXPLORATION

WE VISIT A NEW WAY TO LOOK AT PAINTINGS

WE WALK THROUGH THE PAINTING AND INSIDE OF IT

WE TURN THEIR INGENUITY LOOSE

THEY WORK TOGETHER

THERE IS DECISION MAKING

AND IT'S HARD WORK, WITH FRUSTRATION

WITH LOTS OF ACCOMPLISHMENT

AND THERE IS A COLLABORATIVE PROJECT FOR THE ENTIRE TEAM

THEY CHOOSE A THEME

THEY CHOOSE A CHORE

ONE PAINTS THE BARN

SOME START ON THE PASTURE

AND THEN THEY GIVE UP THE BRUSHES

WHO NEEDS BRUSHES?

SO WE BUILD A VISUAL STORY AS A PAINTING.

AND WE REALLY GET INTO IT

SO WE REVISIT OUR PROGRESS AND MAKE ADJUSTMENTS

AND WE GET, "THE SUN SWAM GOLDEN INTO THE SUMMER SKY"

AND THEN, " COME WITH US INTO AND BEYOND THE BARNYARD"

WE ALSO GET THE MAKINGS OF, "HOW GLORIOUS I AM!"

THE NIGHT, THE MOON, AND THE SILENCE.

AND WE CONTINUE WITH "THE LAVENDAR BIRDS OF EVENING"
