Today we read a picture book about an artist named Kandinksy who had a neurological superpower called synesthesia. We observed some of his art and then started making our own art in a similar style, but integrating mathematical concepts!
Today we finished up our time working on our Kandinsky projects. It was fun to see some students work diligently to do their best art work. When we return from Labor Day (next Monday is off), we will begin our Lemonade War STEAM projects!
Today we worked on our communication and social skills by participating in a STEAM build round robin. Students had to stay at each station for 7 minutes. Then, when they rotated, they had to build on to what was already started from the previous team. Everyone did GREAT! I heard a ton of great conversations!
Today we learned about radial symmetry in citrus fruit and we also learned about an art process called printmaking! We had so much fun!
