Sharing the Fun
The Kindergarten classes have been studying Vincent Van Gogh's sunflowers.  They studied his famous paintings, and they learned about Vincent and his artwork.  They investigated some real sunflowers, noticing some details that they didn't know about the flowers.  Using brushes and also some finger painting, they did their own versions of the famous painting.  They also heard stories about Vincent, Gauguin and Vincent's brother Theo.  Be sure to ask them about Van Gogh to see what they can teach you!
