A PLAY to LEARN activity
Teaching colours is best done through playful everyday life experiences. Try these links to a variety of fun, science ideas for teaching children to identify and learn about colours.
Following Bell Let’s Talk Day, six information sessions for The Three Friends of Winter Art Project took place in classrooms early February, to introduce the idea of Winter Art as therapy for better mental health. The first art workshop was held at lunch on Feb 7th with 8 students in attendance. Students observed tree branches from the window and could also trace plants collected from the field behind the school. These will be turned into abstract stained glass inspired by trees/three friends of winter.
NOTE:The Three Friends of Winter Art Project/Mental Health Art project will run until the end of March 2× at lunch per week, Tuesdays and Wednesdays.Students will have the opportunity to explore stained glass, painting and printmaking.
