This week we finished up a couple of art projects we are working on. The first was crayon resist art. For this the students had to draw a picture with crayons. Pushing really hard. Then we add water colour with lots of water only a little paint. They look wonderful.
The other art project we worked on was tear paper art. We made some great snowman pictures. It was tricky to rip all the paper we needed to make the pictures. Look at some of them below.
WE had a said a sad good-bye to our morning friend Juna. She has moved back to Kosovo. We took a little pretend trip to see what it looks like there through Google. Then all the children asked if we could go look at where Iona is. We did a Google trip to New Zealand. We found out it would take longer to get to Iona than it would to Juna's house. In the afternoon, some kids asked me why I was taking off the name tag so I told them. We then also went on a Google trip to Kosov, Red Deer, Edmonton, Ontario and British Columbia.
This week was the letter "G g". WE made a huge list of words and had fun singing the song. One of the biggest laughs we had was drawing the gorilla. The kids were also very happy to take home their groundhog craft.
