Siwanoy Second Graders' Mural Depicting Different Communities Now on Display at Local Library

Second graders at Siwanoy have been exploring different types of communities - urban, suburban, and rural - in their Social Studies class. They've compared and contrasted various characteristics, such as buildings, recreation, and transportation. Their school's location in Pelham, near both urban and rural areas, has aided their studies.

To conclude their studies, the students worked with artist Kim McCormack to create a three-dimensional mural. Made entirely from recycled materials, the mural represents the communities they've studied, allowing them to apply their knowledge in a practical way.

The mural is now displayed at the Library by the Carol Place entrance. It visually represents the urban, suburban, and rural communities they've learned about.

The mural can be seen during the Library's operating hours. It showcases the students' hard work and creativity, and also highlights the importance of recycling and environmental sustainability.
