One Metre Designs

As part of our measurement strand in Math, the students were given 1 metre of wool and asked to see what design they could create with one metre! 

Getting Ready for Advent!

The 3A and 3B classes will be leading the Advent Celebration next Monday for the primary classes. Mrs. Kelly helped us prepare today with a terrific discussion about the meaning of Advent!

Warm and Cool Landscapes

After discussing warm and cool colours last Thursday, the kids created these masterpieces. They had to use warm colours (oranges, reds, yellows) for the sky, and only cool ones (greens, blues, purples) for the landscapes (or vice versa). We noticed that when warm colours were used for the sky, it looked like a daytime sky, but when cool colours were used, a nighttime sky was created. The results are stunning!

Just in time for Remembrance Day!

Here is a link to our class book 'What Does Peace Feel Like?', with the 3A artists' voices as well. It's really cute!

What Does Peace Feel Like?

Inspired by the book What Does Peace Feel Like? By Vladimir Radunsky, and in honour of Remembrance Day, the students created pastel drawings illustrating what peace looks, tastes, sounds, smells and feels like to them...
