For our Paint Me A Picture unit of inquiry the students have been doing a learning journey of artists. We read about and discuss the works of different prominent artists and then we record facts that we have learned about their lives. Following this, we copy a piece of art that they did before creating an original artwork in their style. We have already studied Picasso and Matisse.

Enjoy the pictures of the students original creations below!

Math Test: Wednesday, March 15th

We have completed another unit in math on the concepts of money, length, mass and volume, as well as solving word problems relating to the measurement concepts of length, mass and volume. This encompasses chapters 10, 11 and 12 in the math textbook from pages 6-54. The students are free to bring their math books home to practice for the test, but please remind them to bring them back to school each day as we will need it for class. Please review the concepts with them so they are better equipped to successfully complete the test independently.
