We started by reading The Snail's Spell and What Does This Tail Do? to learn exactly how different animals use their body parts. Then Jeannie Connelly from the Conval Arts Integration Program came to do a project with our class. With her help, in teams of four we created our own habitats for creatures we created. Each creature had special features that helped them survive in their habitat. It was an educational, collaborative and fun experience enjoyed by all!

We’ve been learning how to understanding teen numbers as a ten and more ones by building models with unifix cubes. Another fun counting activity was part of learning about penguins and their adaptations to life in the cold. We looked at fact cards about several different species of penguins, and used linking cubes to make models of their heights. The math teams were very excited about this job, and kept asking for more penguins to measure! Look for a display outside our room next week, and see how you compare to the penguins.

Our student artists have been painting and weaving! In Kindergarten we made and painted recycled weaving looms using only primary colors of red, yellow and blue! Our First Grade artists painted a color wheel creating secondary colors using the primary colors. They made orange, green and purple. They are now weaving their color wheel into a flower design! In Second Grade we painted a landscape with either warm (red, yellow and orange) or cool (blue, green or purple) colors. We added birch trees and are now weaving an owl to place in the trees. Third grade artists are creating color portrait weavings. They had the challenge to choose a color family (warm, cool, primary, secondary or complementary - opposite colors on the color wheel ) to design their weaving from head to toe! Value, tints and shades of a color, was the theme for our Fourth Grade artists. We created a few color studies in our sketch books and they had the chance to choose a final design for a canvas artwork! When you visit our school, please check out our hallway art gallery by the nurses office. They are masterpieces!
