On Monday Divisions 7 & 8 went to Confederation Park during nature school. We learned about sound mapping.
Students got ready for the activity by listening to the story, The Listening Walk, by Paul Showers. We then worked together to find some idea for things that they might hear. The nearby construction made it easy and difficult at the same time!!
Luckily it was a beautiful day–not too hot at all. We all got situated with our papers–facing our compass rose to the North–and then began sketching and labelling things we could hear.
We had to stay in our spots…it was tricky at first, but we got the hang of it. We were SOOOO QUIET!!
