Design Process - Sled or Boat

   

 

We could design either a sled or a boat. The sled had to hold a small toy and be pulled up and down a hill using magnetism. The boat had to float in water, hold 10 marbles and be pulled using magnetism. It was a lot of fun watching all the designs being made and tested.

Learning About Magnets

   

We did many experiments using magnets. First we had to find objects in the classroom that are attracted to magnets. Then we had to test if magnetic force can pass through different objects like foam, carpet, foil, paper etc. We also made a compass using a cup of water, needle and magnet. In our last experiment we used balloons to see which materials attract static. We had a lot of fun learning about magnets.

Kandinsky Art

We cut out a tree out of cardboard and painted it green. Then we painted the background blue and then painted 6 pieces of paper for the ornaments. It took a while to put them all on. Kandinsky can hear music through art. It was fun. - Aubrey

The artist Kandinsky likes putting things into circles. We used a whole bunch of paper and tracers to make the circles. We painted the tree and background with acrylic paint. We also painted with glitter paint and gold. It was fun. - Autumn

Remembrance Day Art

First we drew the horizon line and then we wet the paper and painted green and blue. We made the crosses out of tape and when it was still wet we added some salt. To finish it off we added poppies. - Sawyer

We did art about Remembrance Day. It was really fun and we all liked doing it and it was an easy experiment. I liked doing it. - Anna

Happy Birthday Autumn!

 

Pumpkin Carving!

Scream Self Portraits

First we drew lines for the bridge and sky and the water. We coloured the bridge with paint and then we painted the horizon and we also painted the water. We took pictures of ourselves screaming and put it on the scream painting. I liked doing this art activity. - Idrees
