Fine Arts Presentation

The presentations: Fred Penner (great singing Chris), storyteller and drummers, timelines were well connected to the three key questions: what was this artist as a person, what was this person like as an artist, and why was this artist important?  Highlights: "Fred Penner" - Chris singing the "sandwich" song. "Roy Vicker" - group chose a local artist and drumming while each person read about Roy Vickers. "Storytelling" - Totem Pole. Music - Interesting timeline.  Excellent work!!!

    I agree the presentations were excellent! Your singing/drumming was so lovely too! I think that our class is very creative. Can't wait to see the rest of the presentations on Thursday :)

    I also agree. Thank you for your singing. I think music in the classroom is a must! During my last practicum, we played music several times a week for the grade 5/6's. Every art lesson we played music (no talking rule) so student's could fully access their creative thinking and every gym class we played music for their running and warm-up. It was amazing to see how positively the student's responded to the music and how much it helped with management.

    So glad to have these posts to remind me how well the day went. I agree that your class is particularly creative - no shortage of ways to present learning here! If we sing, great. If not, Cheyenne has described how recorded music can still be used to help students focus and manage their energy and moods.
