Kandinsky's Abstract Art

We had great fun with abstract art just like the Master Artist Wassily Kandinsky. Kandinsky is a famous Russian artist and pioneer of the Abstract Art movement.

He found lots of inspiration for his artworks from listening to music. 

Here are some facts about Kandinsky:

Wassily Kandinsky is one of the most famous artists in the world. He is known for being the first ABSTRACT artist!

ABSTRACT art means that the artwork is made up of lines, shapes and colors that do not represent anything. 

Kandinsky had a genetic condition called synaesthesia, which is mixing up of his senses. This allowed him to SEE sounds and HEAR colours.

Wassily would often paint while listening to music.

Some of his paintings are called Compositions just like musicians compose or write music.

Take a look at his artworks and you may see lines and shapes that look like musical notes.

Our Christmas Play

Fourth Class performed a fantastic play called Cinderella Rockerfella for Christmas. The children played Cinderella, Prince Charming, and others, making it very exciting to watch. Everyone worked hard behind the scenes, making costumes and setting up the stage. The children did a great job, and it was really exciting. The play made Christmas feel even more special. We can't wait for the next one! 🌟
