Happy Halloween!
If you were unable to attend the costume parade this afternoon at Linwood School, here is a short video to show you both how lovely and ghoulish the students of room 4 were looking today!

The Integrated Arts and Adobe Voice
The students in room 4 have been very busy these past two weeks. We participated in an Integrated Arts workshop with visual artist Claudia Evans-Menard. We worked with some really cool painting techniques and supplies, including a type of paint called Interference Paint, which gave our work a neat, shimmering effect. Our class will be sharing their artwork with families at parent conferences.
We have recently begun using an app called "Adobe Voice" to create videos that will showcase our learning from the study of Our Community in Social Studies. The students are working independently in groups of two or three to create a video that highlights the important aspects of a community. As well as giving the students experience with creating and editing videos to include photos, icons and music, this activity has provided students an opportunity to develop cooperative group work skills with a focus on respectful decision making. The students are excited to share these videos at parent conferences.
