Today students practiced slowing down and making thoughtful observations through sketching and labeling with a variety of natural artifacts. Observations included the artifact's colour, texture, possible function and it's importance to the environment, people, animals/plants etc. The purpose of the lesson and work was to further introduce students to our inquiry this year and to begin the process of slowing down to observe in preparation for Museum School. (November 4 through 8th)
Students came home with a notice today in regards to our annual Open House and Lake Bonavista School Council Back to School BBQ which is on Thursday, September 26th. Bring your lawn chair and blanket, enjoy a hot dog, catch up with old friends and meet some new ones as we celebrate Lake Bonavista's 50th year. Please visit the following link to order:
