Wednesday February 8, 2017

Today we worked on our silhouette art. Last week we created a colour grade to represent the background of our art. Students experimented with a colour of their choice, lightening the colour with white paint, and darkened their colour with black paint. Next, students chose a local woodlands animal to create a black silhouette against their background colour scheme. They are turning our beautifully.

Tomorrow, February 9 we will be heading to the wetlands on an animal track adventure. Please make sure your child is dressed for the weather. It is supposed to warm up by Thursday, however if the wind-chill is taking the temperature below -19C we will not be going. We still need volunteers so if you would like to come along on our walk, please sign up via the online volunteer sign up (Mrs. Daniels class) or contact Ms. Barley directly via email (email link at bottom of blog)

Note: if we do not have 2 volunteers per class, we will not be going.

Tomorrow is the last day for inline skating. Students should wear comfy clothing and can bring their own approved helmet on their skating days.
