1st Grade Fun at CMP!

This school year, we are committed to an exciting partnership with the Children's Museum of Pittsburgh.  Each Propel art teacher was asked to choose a teacher to collaborate with to create a year long, interdisciplinary project using the museum as an extension of our classrooms.  Studio 101 and 1st grade visited the museum on 11/9/10.  The students showed off their knowledge of classic architecture as they toured the museum and generally had a great time!  Ms. Babusci took the photos below.  Test your own knowledge of classic architecture.
