S3G Still Life Paintings
STILL LIFE PAINTINGS
The S3G each chose their own Still Life Image to bring to school of their favorite National/State Park or from their travels. They have immersed themselves into the image and wrote descriptions using metaphors, similes, and used a myriad of adjectives with the help of our mighty writing coaches. Today they have each used their images to sketch and paint their Still Life Paintings. The vibrant mixes and strokes of colors have truly created a beautiful art piece by each brilliant S3G.

S3G Jigsaw Broadcasting: The Major Rivers of the World
The S3G explored and learned about the Major Rivers of the World and studied the maps of where they are located. Then we split up into groups and did a JIGSAW Broadcasting project where the S3G chose a river, researched more facts, and taught it to each other through posters and broadcasts. Here are a few that were very creative. Enjoy the videos!

S3G Environmental Awareness Broadcasting Part 1!
The S3G embarked on jigsawing about environmental pollution. The S3G had to choose teams, but they were challenged to choose teams of individuals they think they would have difficulty working with. It was very funny as each team member was added on. The S3G found it very fun. Then it was up to them to use their independent project time wisely to come up with a television commercial/broadcast/presentation to promote environmental awareness to our galaxy. They were on their own to create props or find them, write scripts and rehearse. I, Chief Snoopy was the equipment/supply personnel who just gave them what they needed such as printing images they requested or getting them supplies. They couldn’t stop thinking and planning about it for days. The wizards have completely taken over the class. You should have seen how they have utilized our learning zone.
Mrs. Diana’s thoughts: Hmmm, these brilliant S3G wizards have completely taken over my class… what to do… O_o
Here are some broadcasting that happened today. Enjoy–way too cute & funny. Stay tuned for more of Channel S3G Environmental 101 Broadcasting coming soon…
