Unit of Inquiry: How We Organize Ourselves

Visual Art:  From Farm To Table
For this unit we focused on photography of foods from farm to table
The students used a Canon IXUS 130 camera with instructions on first viewing their image through the lens and arranging it to their satisfaction and then taking the photograph
The students were creative--some stood on a chair and clicked with a top view, some moved their products to a different location and some added other props.

Unit of Inquiry: Sharing The Planet--Plants

Focus on Plants:  This unit has allowed us to have a variety in our creativity

The students have created paper flowers using tissue paper and pipe cleaners

The students have colored clay pots with acrylic paints and planted flowering plants that grow wild

This unit created a lot of excitement since the students took ownership for caring for their plants
