Dragon's Wish

Picture
Our 6th and 6th/8th Classes reviewed cultural dances and composed rhythms for a Dragon Dance. The dance tells the story of a dragon who wishes to find the elusive Pearl of Wisdom. 
These scholars also designed and created a wonderful Dragon!
6th Grade students have been reading the classic, Dragonwings for Language Arts

6th Grade and 6th/8th Combination Classes Create Fractured Weather Forecasts

The video below is an example of the wacky weather forecasts our JAA scholars are producing.  Students are exploring ways to create an interesting character as well as script writing, camera and set design.  The next step in the process is editing the wonderful footage students have produced.
Learning activities for this exciting project have included fairy tale character weather forecasts.
Future learning activities for these classes will feature Movement and Dance
