In art, we are starting a bird painting watercolour. Students are experimenting using watercolours ; how to get different tones, using a paintbrush and blending. Next they will select a model and start a draft before moving on to the painting.

In art, our new project is making a puppet using a variety of techniques and media: paper-maché, aluminum foil sculpting, wire and cardboard. Students have planned their puppet using different references. In this project, we are looking for expression, movement, creativity and skills.

Training for Excellence 8 - Hidalgo

This week, students worked with a partner and picked their training activity at random. They had the possibility of 80 different cards that focused on cardio and strength training options. They had fun picking card after card, crossing their fingers they would get a "good" card to guide their workout.
