Volcanoes


Ms. Larry's grade 5 and 6 class recently completed a unit on volcanoes. As a culminating unit project, each student constructed their own volcano. When the students finished their volcanoes, they 'erupted' them by mixing vinegar (an acid) and baking soda (a base).

Students also remixed video of the 'eruptions' using iMovie and added a soundtrack that they created with Garageband. Check out Hunter's video above.

Fall Photography


The Grade 5 and 6 students have been exploring the world of digital photography. Check out the fall images that they captured outside the school. Students used Picnik to adjust the brightness, contrast and saturation in their images.
