Highlights

Grasslands, including the life and death of grassland animals, are the focus of Joy Pod’s Ignite activities for the week! Students sketched grassland animal’s replica skulls for our Calm category, expanded our grassland mural for our Creative category, and acted out grassland animal movements for our Active category. 

In Math, we explored space and shape through concepts of symmetry and transformations, while in Art we created our very own rip-art buffalo skulls with Mr. Kelly. In the afternoon, we continued with Art and sculpted beautiful grassland animal miniature skulls, using air dry clay!
