Lewis Discovery News

November is here and the weather is finally cooler. Many events are planned and we can't wait to share them with you!

Lewis Discovery Team

Happy Fall Y'all!!!!! 2nd-5th grade artists have completed two 3-dimensional drawing projects using foreground, middle ground & background while Kinder and 1st graders have completed 3-4 drawing projects reviewing the elements of art: line, shape, space and color! All art students will have one artwork on display in the hallways of Bob Lewis Elementary by Thanksgiving Break. Next, all grade-levels will create a sketchbook & portfolio this school year to document their growth as an artist. We have a goal of starting our ceramics units for all grade-levels after Thanksgiving or Winter Break. All artwork will be sent home at the end of the school year!

Primary GT (1st-2nd) In November students will understand the importance of taking intellectual risk and use critical thinking skills to solve problems. They will also understand that the big idea is something to be aware of, discover that details are what support the big idea and understand that embracing your ideas and sharing them can benefit both themselves and everyone around them.

Intermediate GT (3rd-5th) In November students will be able to identify and describe the key factors that contribute to the strength and stability of geological structures (shape/formation, interdependence of parts) and be able to make connections between geological structures and modern architecture and engineering around the world.

November is a time we spend practicing being thankful and showing appreciation for everything and everyone around us. We celebrate that through seasonal music and celebration of Thanksgiving. We play instruments and fun games in music and celebrate our time together through music making.
