<\/p>\nLast week we focused on stick figures and bodies in motion. This week, in addition to doing hands and feet, I’ve asked the kids to\u00a0imagine what their own personal super hero would look like, and we should get some interesting results. Homework:\u00a0Ask the kids to imagine what their superpower would be, and what they’d look like as a superhero. \u00a0Enjoy these awesome artworks and scroll down for the class schedule.<\/p>\n
