MANDALAS

11/16/2022

 
As the holidays arrive, life gets crazy - that means, fourth grade gets crazy. We're taking some time to reset as a class. We're refocusing our classroom contract, resetting our behavior, and paying attention to the little things...because the little things make a big difference.

In Tibetan Buddhist culture, monks practice the ritual of creating sand mandalas. They are beautiful works of art. They are symmetrical (math), detailed (focus), and centered around specific values (Titan traits). We took some time to start our own! We listened to music, focused on a word that resonated with us, and created symmetrical designs...to be colored tomorrow.

REAL LIFE MATH

11/14/2022

 
Today we looked at math in the real world! Often it feels like we're learning things we'll never use again, but we love when all of our skills come together and we can see the application.
​Can you double this banana bread recipe? How about quadruple it? Ask us how we did it!

SAVING SLIDE CITY

ART!

11/7/2022

 
Today is art we explored the properties of oil pastels. We learned at our own pace, tried different methods, and created night sky images in our sketchbooks. We'll use this knowledge moving forward as we embark on a big constellation art/STEM collaboration!
