TTE Second Grade Mural Artist!

One of our TTE second grade students had the unique and special opportunity to paint a portion on a mural in the Santa Fe Art District in Denver!  While downtown in the art district with her family, Molly (from Mrs. McCluskey's class) and her brother were invited to paint a portion of a Mural by a local Denver artist. This mural can be viewed by driving down town to the Santa Fe Art District. It is located on 7th Street between Santa Fe and Kalamath.

Congratulations Molly! How exciting to get to paint on a mural that will be viewed by hundreds of of art enthusiasts who visit the art district each week!

Dia de Los Muertos at TTE


In celebration of the wonderful Latin American Dia de los Muertos holiday, third grade TTE students created a Calaveras (Sugar Skulls) in memory of specific loved ones or pets who have passed away or live far away. Students studied the traditions surrounding Dia de los Muertos in order to gain understanding of the importance of this beautiful tradition.  They chose someone to remember and created a Calaveras using both traditional and student created symbolism that represents their chosen subject.  

Below are some of the fantastic Calaveras created by our talented third grade students. 
Please join is in remembering these very important loved ones and pets.
