Remington finished his Judith Scott inspired bundle (small sculpture). Remington helped me photograph his sculpture, so it could look its best. We talked about why it is important to document our artwork. Then Remington started his next project: Houses in Our Community.

Jackson continued to work on his Judith Scott inspired bundle (small sculpture). It is very impressive so far! We also looked at more of Judith Scott's artwork to get more ideas. Jackson is developing his fine motor skills. He is wrapping the yarn skillfully and making good design decisions.

Remington created his Judith Scott inspired bundle (small sculpture). He used cardboard, yarn, and colorful wool balls. This project reinforced fine motor skills and supported design skills.

Cam has started a larger landscape drawing that feautures his unique style of trees and waterfalls. He is using colored pencils to create a vibrant scene.

Aiden finished his drawing of a glazed donut with a bite taken out of it. I have been challenging him to observe textures, values, and proportions to make the drawing look as photorealistic as possible. He really rose to the challenge and pushed himself to create a very beautiful drawing!

I read the book Unbound: The Life & Art of Judith Scott by Joyce Scott with Brie Spangler and Melissa Sweet to Jackson. We talked about what we learned about Down syndrome, different abilities, the “colors of gone,” and how artists can use found materials to create art. I had various materials on the table in front of us: rocks, sticks, felt, yarn, buttons, ribbon, cardboard, etc. Jackson selected his yarn and a larger interesting stick with angles to create his Judith Scott inspired bundle (small sculpture). He started his bundle art project by wrapping the yarn around his stick in a horizontal pattern. He plans on adding additional materials to it.

I had various materials on the table in front of us: rocks, sticks, felt, yarn, buttons, ribbon, cardboard, etc. We also went outside to look around the playground to see what else we could find for the bundle project. We washed the sticks we collected and let them dry. Remington will create a Judith Scott inspired bundle (small sculpture).

Art and Movement:
We moved to the adventures of Danny Go! Then we took a break with some water and read the book No, David! by David Shannon.

Cam started his larger landscape drawing. He is using colored pencils on drawing paper 18" x 24." He is off to a great start!

I gave Jackson a gumball machine printout with 100 gum balls for the 100th Day of School. Even though the 100th Day of School was February 5, 2026, it was still fun to commemorate. We counted out loud from 1 to 100 finding the numbered gumballs, and Jackson colored each one with a different colored marker. Then I gave Jackson a flower petal clock handout with leaves for the big and little hands, and he colored, cut out, and assembled the pieces of the clock. Then we practiced telling time.

Remington finished his Chinese vase using colored pencils and marker to layer and blend the colors and designs. He also added a foreground for the vase and signed his name.
