Oxbow Park

We had a wonderful day experiencing a river wetlands environment and an ancient temperate forest environment.  A special thanks to the parents shoe drove us to the park and helped out during the day - you make these wonderful experiences possible.  Please enjoy some pictures of our day with your child.  

The wetlands - habitat study

Hi everyone!
We are moving into a study about the biomes of the world.  This week we began our study by reading, writing, thinking, speaking, creating and listening to ideas about wetlands!  Ask your young ecologist about what they learned regarding freshwater habitats - wetlands.  Here are the projects they created this week:

 Your young scientists are amazing!  Thanks everyone!

Artist in Residence!

We were very busy this week enjoying Shuhe, our mask-making expert artist.  We began by thinking of an animal to interpret as a mask.  Shuhe showed us how to channel an animal spirit.

Then we got busy creating our masks:

 They were turning out really beautiful!

 Friday it was time for practice and performance!  The artist taught us about performance with the masks...

 Thank you so much PTA for your generous support of the arts at Duniway!  Enjoy the video!
