Hello Families!
Some of the exciting things that we did this week were:
- we had a practice fire drill. Students did a great job calmly exiting the building quickly and remaining quiet outside.
- completing our learning with ratios. Students worked to both simplify and find equivalent ratios. Next week we will begin our exploration of decimals!
- took part in another art session with Ms. Sharon! Students learned about different gradients of pencils and the techniques they could use to create various styles of sketches. They were also introduced to and used two types of art specific erasers. They used both of these tools to draw realistic meteors for our collaborative meteor shower art piece. Each student selected and cut out their favourite meteor and then placed it on the night sky portion of the paper. Stay tuned for a look at the final product soon!
