Today we joined our buddy class to learn about Michelangelo and how he painted the Sistine Chapel in the Vatican City. We talked about how he spent approximately 5 years laying on his back painting scenes onto the ceiling of the church in the 1500's. After our discussion, we joined our buddies under their tables to try creating our own art while lying on our backs! It was a lot of fun but our arms definitely got tired quickly.
Here are a few pictures of us creating our masterpieces and here is a short movie about our afternoon.






Wonderful to see your young students learning skills every week and share in their activities from so far away!
