Games! Games! Games!

Game Day! was the message we found in our countdown balloon today.  So, we spent the middle block playing games. We started outside with a game of pass-ball.  then we moved inside for some other games.  The only rule was: No electronics!  It was amazing to see all of the cooperation and positive sportsmanship in the class as we all tried some new games and played some old favourites!

Optical Ilusions!

Today we explored a website and learned about optical illusions.  We learned that they are pictures that trick the eye.  Be sure to click the link under student activities!

Then we created our own optical illusions. First, we used a ruler to draw a diagonal line.  Then we drew rectangles, making sure that the corner of each rectangle was on the line.  After that we finished using a ruler to draw rays until the page was full.  We then drew a figure on top of the checker pattern.  Lastly, we coloured in a special checker pattern to create the illusion.  Can you see the man in the picture?
