Smock for Art Project

I sent a note home in Friday Folders requesting that scholars bring an old shirt to serve as an artist's smock for our art project on Tuesday.  After school I found two of these letters on the ground, so here's a copy of the letter in case yours didn't make it home.

Dear Parents,

On Tuesday, Oct. 29 we will be creating painted paper.  We will use this later to create Eric Carle inspired Halloween artwork.  We will be using tempura paint which can get messy.  Please send your child to school with an old shirt or apron that they can put over their clothes in case they get paint on them.  It’s easier to get creative when we don’t have to worry about protecting our nice school clothes.

Thanks!

Mrs. Smith

This is not a requirement, just a request to help keep your child's nice clothes clean.  One of Dad or Grandpa's old shirts would work perfectly!
