Making Art in Germany



On Monday it is always a joy to hear were everyone got to go, and what they got to see over the weekend. Many students excitedly reported about the many fantastic things that they got to experience. We had some students who got to go to Paris, some whose parents took them to Austria, some got to go to Rottenburg ob der Tauber, some to Bavaria etc. etc…What a wonderful time for all!! Thanks so much host parents and families for making our students' time in Goeppingen an experience of a lifetime!!

Today was Art Project day for us.  From 9:20 till 12:40 we got to express our cultural impressions with paint or in clay. We started with a brainstorm on cultural differences and things that come to mind as we reflect on what we have experienced for the last week and ½. After a short instructional period by two of the Freihof art teachers, were we received hints on techniques, we were let lose. Some chose to paint and some to do clay sculptures. Below you will see us in action and some of the developing/finished art pieces.
