This week our class started a new art project to display during the Fireside Festival Scavenger Hunt. Students were eager to learn how to use their metal compass from within their geometry sets in order to create perfect circles with the correct measurements. Students worked with concepts such as measurement, patterning, and perspective to create their snowman masterpiece using pastels!
Our Fireside Scavenger Hunt Clue: Find a snowman with a familiar face! Can you find him?
Fireside Festival
One of the highlights of our week in Learning Centre 4 was the Fireside Festival. The school and community gathered in the gymnasium to sing and celebrate the upcoming holidays. Our class, accompanied by Mr. Sinclair's Grade 5/6 class, sang Jingle Bell Rock, Deck the Halls and Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer. At the evening performance, families took part in a scavenger hunt around the school. It was a great night with friends and family in our community.
Congratulations to Kate who won a Fireside Festival food hamper!
