Happy Friday!

Today students had the opportunity to learn from one of our parents, Sam Hester, who is a graphic recorder.  Sam shared with students some of the key components to consider when you are creating graphics in order to represent big ideas and communicate understanding. 

As part of our animation project, students are challenged to communicate the main aspects of an immigration story within a small time-frame.  They will need to succinctly condense their knowledge and highlight why immigrants came to Canada and what has been their impact on our history.  Sam’s lesson today encouraged students to think about their use of words, icons, navigation and colour as they plan their animation story and project.  

Thank-you so much Sam for coming out today to support us with our project!
