Calendar Art!

Room one were given options and criteria for their calendar art. They had to include all four seasons, separate the paper into four somehow, a tree and their art must be painted; the rest was up to them. Check out how they did!

 

 

Conscience Alley! Michelangelo

This drama convention is used to explore a situation where a character has an important decision to make. Room One's version focuses on part of our thinker keys reflections - should Michelangelo say no to the Pope? Or should he paint the Sistine Chapel? The students act as his inner thoughts and talk about the what could happen either way - One side of the alley is 'for' and the other 'against'.
