An artsy day indeed

Hi parents,

We had a very art-centred day today. It was "International Dot Day", which is a day intended to celebrate the message behind the book "The Dot" by Peter Reynolds, which is basically to believe in yourself, and realize that success looks different for everyone.


The students did a water colour dot art project and learned how to created Montessori-inset-inspired tracers, using cardstock paper.

The class also gravitated towards a new responsible work choice that was just added today, which is designing a "Boss" for a really fun math game called Classroom of Doom. I didn't think they'd be so into it. But it's a cool game because we get to design many aspects of it collaboratively, and then  appreciate everyone's contributions as we play the game together as a full class. Looking forward to introducing it officially next week!

We ended our day with come creative writing time, and yet another place value math game.

Tomorrow is going to be a great day, as we will be meeting our Grade 1/2 buddies, learning French, and of course, doing a spelling quiz.

Have a nice night,

Zac
