Mrs. Thornhill's Fifth Grade had a Guest Teacher in to teach them about Large Scale Collaborative Chalk Drawings. Small groups of students brainstormed possible objects to draw, colored them, worked in small groups to decide which one to present to the entire class, and voted on 2 designs to create on our playground. During Math class we learned about the Grid Method and how to use equal ratios to expand a simple 6 inch x 8 inch design to a 6 FOOT by 8 FOOT design. The class spent 2 days outside making grids, drawing a rough outline, and using chalk to color it in! Thank you to Mrs. Brook McDonald for collaborating with our class!
