Tuesday Update March 29th

Rene works with the students to make our round tiles for the school mural project.

Notices:
The times for your parent/student/teacher interviews went home today
(if there is a problem feel free to ask for a different time)

Today was a very interesting day. We began with library and computers. The students first picked a library book for silent reading then we went to the computer and researched images for the tile art project, practiced proper typing form then had about 10 min of free time.

From recess to lunch we took our drawings and research ideas to the music room and completed the first step in the school Tile Art project, the making of the tile. For this week the music room has been converted into an art room, so all the students in the school can build and design their clay tiles. In three or four weeks, after our tiles are dried and fired we will apply the glazes and complete our individual tiles.

In the afternoon we read for 35 min then went to P.E. with Mr. V's class and ended the day doing multiplication in math with questions like 11 x 234, 12 x 222. Multiplying two digit numbers was new for some and a refresher for others. The last 15 min of the day we watched clay-mation movies made by one of the students at tech camp over spring break.
