Parents, I'd like to apologize. Your kids went home dirty and messy today! We are experimenting with different art materials and today we began with chalk pastel... Oops! I thought 15 minutes of cleanup would be good, but found myself tidying up after the students left... And some of them have dirty shirts...
We also continued our work today on writing suspenseful stories! The students tell me that they even "get the shivers" when they read their own stories... Oh, the power of words!
Tomorrow we're going to continue our exploration of Rocks and Minerals through the kid borrowed form the Glenbow Museum. We will be returning to this topic of study later on.
Reminders & Requests:
1. Any other lids would be enormously helpful... Oddly enough, we'll be using them for an art project shortly...
2. If you have maps we can have it would be greatly appreciated! Maps come in all sorts of styles... A map of Calgary, a tourist map of Drumheller, a map of West Edmonton Mall... Any kind of map! The students are going to be learning about map making and infographics in the near future.
Thanks!
Have a great night,
Mr. MacKenzie
