Good Morning!
I hope everyone had a very relaxing and enjoyable Memorial Day weekend. It is times like these, that we can truly appreciate our family and friends who are able to be around for us and remember those who are no longer with us. Take a moment to count all your blessings for the people in life who support us and give us strength. There is ALWAYS something to be grateful for and to appreciate.
I am truly blessed to be able to teach a subject I am passionate about. I enjoy helping foster creativity and art appreciation amongst the students I work with. I hope your students are enjoying their art classes with me, just as much as I enjoy having them in class. While we cannot be together during this time- I want them to know how truly lucky I am to be their teacher. I miss them very much and look forward to returning back to school in September. For now, I am going to start rolling out some fun Summer-inspired art projects. Enjoy and as always stay safe FLC families! We believe in you!!
Stay strong, stay positive and stay grateful!

Good Morning and Happy Tuesday everyone!
I hope everyone is doing well and staying safe. Since, we found out yesterday that schools will not be reopening this year, I thought it would be nice to put together a slide show of student artwork. I figured the students will be missing out on having an art show this year, so I would like to help them celebrate all the hard work they have been doing this year during virtual learning.
If you have pictures of artwork your child has created, please share them with me- as I will be working on this slide show for awhile and HOPEFULLY it comes out as I plan. Fingers crossed!
As always- please submit all artwork with student's full nae, grade and homeroom teacher's name. Thank you again!
email artwork to ebarone@freeholdboro.k12.nj.us

Wishing you all a very wonderful day. The weather was gorgeous the past weekend. I hope you all had a chance to get out and soak up the sunshine and nice weather. I have uploaded new projects for this week (in honor of the coming Mother's Day on Sunday). All projects are located on the grade level tabs to the LEFT.
Don't forget to submit your assignments to ebarone@freeholdboro.k12.nj.us. Make sure to include the student's full name, homeroom teacher's name and/or grade level.

Hello Everyone,
I hope you are having a very wonderful day and enjoying some fresh air and sunshine (safely of course). As we continue on with social distancing and virtual instruction, I want to say how impressed I have been by the artwork produced by our students here at FLC. I have been getting a lot of positive responses from families, who have made their art lesson a family activity. I think that is an awesome way to help your kiddo while also bonding and sharing quality time together. While this time is stressful and very upsetting for many people- quality time is invaluable and definitely helps students foster security within the home environment.
In closing, I know how extremely tough it is to juggle virtual learning and keep up routines while working/teaching from home. For the parents and guardians who have been making the time and effort to help their little one with their art lessons, I want to give you a very big THANK YOU. You help to make all this possible for your kiddo.
Be well and stay safe!

Good Morning and Happy Monday Everyone!
Welcome back to another wonderful week of virtual art. To the LEFT you will need to click on your grade level to find assignments for this week.
Remember: When submitting assignments please include your student's Full Name, grade and classroom teacher. It is extremely helpful when I am trying to locate a student in the Genesis grading portal. Thank you again for emailing me all the assignments that are completed. My email is ebarone@freeholdboro.k12.nj.us
As a bonus, our amazing school nurse has shared a wonderful resource for students during this time. Feel free to share this resource with your kiddos if they are feeling nervous about social distancing. This can be a very difficult time for our students to process the events going on in the world. Sharing this resource might help to break down any fears they are having regarding social distancing. https://youtu.be/Xa_qNH8u3OM Enjoy and I hope this is helpful for anyone in need of it.
Have a wonderful Monday FLC. I believe in you!

Good Morning!
Happy Friday, everyone! I hope you all had a very wonderful week and that you are all safe and healthy during this time. I know today is promising to be a rainy and cold day. If you are struggling for projects to engage your little one's, feel free to click on the Additional Activities tab on the LEFT (once your student finishes their art assignment). I have uploaded a few additional activities that should help to reduce the rainy day blah!
Parents/Guardians: Thank you so much for continuing to send me your student's artwork. I am very appreciative and love seeing all their wonderful masterpieces. While I love getting the pictures, please do not forget to include your student's Full name, grade level and homeroom teacher's name. This way, I can give them academic credit for the work they have done. It gets a little confusing if the pictures do not include this or come from an email not on file with the district. Thank you again for helping out during this time.

Good Morning parents/students!
Welcome back everyone. I hope you all had a very relaxing and enjoyable Spring Break with your familiy and friends. I know that this year's Spring Break was not the usual break from school and that many of us did not get the opportunity to see all of the loved ones that we normally would. Maybe you didn't get to travel or celebrate your holidays the way we would have liked to. However, if you take a moment to appreciate the time around the people you did get to see, you will notice that you were able tobond and conect better with the people in your household. I hope that your Spring break (whatever you did) was enjoyable and relaxing. I hope you got the chance to recharge and get yourself prepared to rock the end of the school year!
As we continue with Virtual Instruction, I want to take a moment to recognize and appreciate all the parent's and caregivers who took the time to email and share their student's artwork with me or reach out to talk about the projects. They are a very welcomed email and I love to see my students working, learning and enjoying the lessons! Keep the emails coming at ebarone@freeholdboro.k12.nj.us
Don't forget to check out this week's Morning Show. I had the pleasure to share a quick lesson on "How to Draw Springtime Flowers". Feel free to check it out and try and draw your own!
Have a great day and stay safe everyone!

Good Morning Everyone!
Today is a gorgeous day to do some art outdoors! Sit on the porch or in the yard and breathe the fresh air. Hear the birds chirping and feel the sun's rays shining down on you. Remember: this Covid-19 is not a forever thing. Eventually, everything should return to normal and schools will reopen. Enjoy this time to learn a new hobby or spend quality time with loved ones.
I cannot wait to see the beautiful artwork you create! Email me pictures of your finished works. I love seeing how well everyone is doing with the assignments.

Hey Parents/Students!
Happy Tuesday! It's not the nicest day out, but it doesn't mean you can't have a blast creating art indoors! Feel free to check out the additional Rainy Day activities (Located to the LEFT under grade level tabs).
*It has been brought to my attention that there have been some issues with Youtube recently. Parents and students are having issues accessing the videos and resources posted on teacher's lessons. This is especially true if using the school issued Chromebooks.
If for any reason you are having an issue accessing the updated resources; please reach out and email me. I will do my best to help!

Happy Friday Everyone!
Today completes our second week of virtual instruction. I hope everyone has been making the best of a difficult situation and staying safe indoors. I also hope that you have been enjoying the art projects and activities posted. If there are areas you feel your child needs additional support or help with (scissor cutting skills, color/shape recognition, tracing etc.) please feel free to reach out and email me. I will do my best to upload more content to help with those areas. I want to help enrich your child’s life with the beauty of art and foster their creativity.
I want to take a moment to thank all the parents, guardians and other family members/friends who took the time to email me pictures of their student’s work. The emails and photos are amazing and I love seeing how you have taken my assignments and activities and expanded upon them. I love the pictures. Keep them coming!
Lastly, today is Cape Ceremony- a monthly tradition here at FLC. Since school is closed, I have included a link to this month’s Cape Ceremony. I can’t wait to find out who our NEW Super Students are!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dVd021SkPps&feature=youtu.be
Enjoy and have a wonderful Friday!

Good Morning!
Today is Monday March 23, 2020 and we are beginning our second week of virtual learning. I hope everyone is acclimating to the change and staying safe during this time. To the LEFT of my page, you will see tabs marked with different grade levels. Click the grade level that your student is in to help you access their assignment for the week.
First and Second graders have ONE assignment since I meet with them ONCE a week. Kindergarden and self-contained classes meet with me more than once a week. So I have included multiple assignments for them. It does not matter which assignment you do first for these classes. All assignments require minimal materials and are rather easy for students to follow along and complete independently. Students may require some assistance in setting themselves up or completing a specific step. As I said last week, this is a great opportunity for parents or an older sibling to sit with their younger sibling and create art together. What a great bonding experience!
If you have any questions, feel free to email me and I will be happy to assist as best I can. Have a great Monday and be safe!

Good Morning Students and Parents,
Today is Friday March 17, 2020. TGIF EVERYONE! After today, we will have completed one week of virtual instruction. I am hoping everyone is having an easy time navigating the site and finding their assignments. Remember: if you need any help, you can email me at ebarone@freeholdboro.k12.nj.us and I will help you the best I can. ;)
The assignments posted do not require a lot of materials/supplies. Be sure your student has a pencil, eraser and a sheet of drawing paper for most assignments. The links to the assignments will also show what materials are needed.
Parents: Feel free to join your student as they create their artistic masterpieces! Afterall, what a great bonding experience for the whole family! Creating ART! You can even share your pieces with each other and hang them up around the house. Creating your own art gallery at home!
**As an added bonus** I found this adorable book to read with your student! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_j2Ta4IxU9Q Feel free to either read along with your student, or have them try to listen/read on their own.
Some questions to ask your student during and after reading:
-What was the color Marisol was out of?
-What did Marisol do to overcome this problem? How did she fix it?
Enjoy the book and the bonding time with your little!!
I hope you/your little one have a wonderful time being creative.

Hey Parents/Students,
It is Thursday March 19, 2020 and the first week of virtual learning is almost over. I am hoping everyone is navigating the sites easily and continuing to advance themselves during their at-home instruction. Rememeber: if you need anything or have any questions- I am always available by email (ebarone@freeholdboro.k12.nj.us). Student assignments can be found by clicking the grade level tab on the left.
Overall, I am so happy to see how quickly everyone is adjusting to using the online resources and webpages. I am going to be uploading some additional resources and activities for students to use if they finish their assignment and need to/want to practice some other great skills!
Have an happy and healthy Thursday.
