Yesterday our library story was “The Shape Of My Heart”.
Then we spent our art time painting hearts💜❤💕🧡💗 on the new garden bins. This is a school-wide project that we hope to complete by the end of this school year.
Painting hearts is more difficult than you can image…So…We started by creating a stencil. Folding the paper, drawing the half heart shape and cutting it out required that we use a lot of different skills! We then placed our stencil on one of the bins and traced the inside with black paint.
Finally, we got to choose what colour or colours we would like our hearts to be.
This was a follow up activity to our school wide indigenous “Project Of Heart”. The tiny tiles (see the new photo on our home page of some of the tiles) we made represent what we are most grateful for and for what we would miss most if we had been sent to live in a residential school. (This project was based on the story “When We Are Alone” )
Your Assignment this week: Talk to your child about what they chose to include on their tile and why.
