Children’s House young artists continue learning about trees, seeds, and autumn colors. This week we talked about the oak tree, acorns, and squirrels gathering nuts. Students created a mixed media art work, which is on display in the downstairs hall or upstairs foyer.
Middle school students are finished with their portraits and the end results are truly breathtaking. They will each be bringing home an original canvas, and a framed color copy of the portrait they modeled for. Every student put tremendous effort into these fine works of art. This week students imagined they are shop keepers from colonial times and are in the process of designing signs with sculpted mascots. It is an expressive time filled with good cheer.
ELII students continued their hands-on work with circuits, building their own Scrappy Circuits out of simple office & kitchen supplies. Students made a series circuit with a toggle switch, a push switch and even a turn switch. Students drew their plans with electrical schematics and then got to work.
Our furry friends enjoying some love!
ELII students spent some time helping the Children’s House with their drawings on the playground yesterday. SO cute!

Mattakeesett went to Bay Farm Field and did two silent observations, one at the field and one at the beach. Then we explored and brought back some water samples from both spots to look at under the microscope.

This week in The Shop, ELI continued their study of the movement of water. How do we move water from one place to another? What does this movement accomplish? Irrigation? Power? How do we use the power created by the movement of water? Students learned about the invention and purpose of the Persian Wheel, the water wheel and Hydropower. How does innovation and technology improve with each iteration? Students then built their very own working water wheel!
Yesterday, Merida the therapy dog visited ELI to teach students how to understand dogs. Cathy showed the class canine body language and signals a dog will use to tell us when they do not want to be bothered. Thank you for visiting, Merida!
