Liz’s Senior Learner Class

The senior learners are settling into their apprenticeships. Nate and Dutch are at the Southfork Natural History Museum and Nature Center; Ava is at John Jermain Library; Indie is working with our resident scientist, Hannah; Viv and Nina are at the Children's Museum; Sophia is at Arf; Augie and Aidan are at L & W Cafe and Market; Aylin and Jazmyn are at the East End Veterinary Clinic and, on Tuesdays, at The Watermill Center. There is much to learn, and the senior learners will begin researching questions they have about their experiences and organizations shortly.

After our trip to the Pollack-Krasner House, we rolled up our sleeves and took off our shoes to paint large canvases. The kids enjoyed the exciting experience of splashing and throwing paint. They also learned that paint was the subject of Jackson Pollock's later works, and using turkey basters and paint sticks to apply paint was a freeing experience for them. The paintings are hanging in the room—please come by to see them.
