Intellectual
Our students will learn key academic skills - like reading, writing and math - to encompass the knowledge and processes associated with intellectual development. As learners and meaning-makers, students take subject-specific concepts and content and transform them into a new understanding.
Salmon in the Classroom
This is a classroom program by the Department of Fisheries and Oceans, in
conjunction with salmonoid in the classroom.
Mr. Carpenter is operating the salmon tank and bringing the grade three to five class along with the K-2 class on the journey as we raise salmon from eggs to alevin to fry. You can see a record of the happenings by looking at the YouTube playlist found at: bit.ly/2024AVS-SalmonInTheClassroom.
Fusion 9/10 Art
The Fusion Arts students have been busy exploring cartooning and watercolour painting. We learned how to evolve our stickmen from basic figures, void of character, to lively and expressive illustrations. We practiced simple visual storytelling through comic strips and eventually designed our own One-Page comics. After that we moved on to watercolour painting. We learned brush techniques and how to paint in a variety of styles. Our next order of business is to dabble in acrylic painting before moving on to sculpting. And, just around the corner, we'll shift gears as we begin our Drama unit.
