Winter Birch Trees - Watercolour

Here are a few samples of our winter birch trees.  Half the class is still working on completing this project, while the other half has moved on to Sugar Skulls.  I am excited to see what the rest of my little artists will produce!

SO FAR THIS FEBRUARY....

It has been a busy month!  Here are some of our activities for the month of February

Simcoe County Museum:

















Grinding corn





 School Musical: Beauty and the Beast at the Gaiety Theatre.  We have three of our own in this performance!  Congratulations Admiral staff and students!  Shout out to Samara, Ben, and Kendall!

Yes, there are LOTS of photos, but I did not want to miss anyone!  I did not know how many photos, in the dark, without a distracting flash, would turn out.  (My hand was a little shaky, which does not help during a longer exposure -I should have brought a tripod).  Hope each performer finds a photo that makes them smile.  Pictures are from the very back of the theatre, sorry if they do not do the cast credit.






Our Ben!








































































































We completed our Geometry Unit (we finished up with 3-D Geometry).  Students are constructing and investigating nets of prisms and pyramids.












Chinese New Year Celebration!  Welcome Year of  ! (horned animal).  The Ram, according to our in-house experts. Thank you Changhe and family for the wonderful dumplings and treats.  Happy New Year!

The most delicious dumplings!  Thank you Mr. & Mrs. Zhang!



I was sure I had taken pictures of their most recently completed art project, but for some reason the photos are not on my camera...strange....they will follow some time soon.
