One Metre Designs!

During today's Snow Day, the kids had to make a design using 1 metre of wool. The students have been busy estimating and measuring up a storm this week in Math. This activity provided a creative twist to the measurement strand. Designs included a money sign, a star, Gretzky & Crosby's numbers (and Cassidy's!), a heart, a dragon's head, a circle, a lasso and a bowl! Well done!

Descriptive Getaways!

Warm and Cool Landscapes

3A is bursting with budding artists! Using chalk pastels, the students created warm and cool landscapes. The students chose to either make a cool (blues, greens, purples) sky and warm mountains (yellows, oranges, browns, reds) or vice versa. They did a magnificent job!

What Does Peace Feel Like?

Inspired by Vladimir Radunsky's book "What Does Peace Feel Like?" the students expressed their vision of peace using their senses and pastels - the results are stunning!
