First Graders Respond to the Christine and Terry

This Tuesday Terry and I were invited to speak to Nancye Hesaltine's 1st grade class about our project. She began by asking them "what do you see" and we were immediately bombarded by talk of tire tracks, rocks, garage doors, bushes, weeds, antenna, and a fierce debate between whether or not the building on the left was made with rocks or bricks- an interesting response to flattened photographic space!

Nancye sent along these images of small watercolors the kids are making that will be assembled on the floor into a larger grid. I think they completely relate and can't wait to talk to the Third Graders.
