This has been an exceptionally busy week for us in the EK/HS program as we are all working hard on our Historical Halloween Projects. We will be presenting our work on Thursday morning - a little taste of all of our hard work before we have parent-student-teacher conferences on Friday. Below is a selection of our "work-in-progress"!
| Research - the beginning of any project |
| Mapping out the artistry of a presentation board |
| The pyramids take shape! |
| Answering questions and defending our choices |
| More research using books and computers |
| Note-taking and synthesizing details |
| Sometimes having a little fun lightens the pressure! |
| A lot to consider when English is not your first language... |
| A board taking shape |
| We improvise so as not to get too messy |
| Using clay to make models |
| The Egyptians' artistry was extraordinary - a great inspiration |
| Improvising again... |
| Using everything we have available to make an impact |
| Busy mask-making |
| Measuring and cutting materials for costumes |
| Another board taking shape |
| Problem-solving is key - we have to work hard to make the impact with simple materials |
| The work is intense and takes great focus |
| We will be finished soon! |
Beautiful work! so inspiring!
