Today, we dove deep into learning about the electromagnetic spectrum and visible light. We started the day where the students pursued some independent research on the nature of light. They created notes using circle maps, and some students even created some trivia cards that will be used during future classes. They then finished their light spectrum art pieces that they started last week. They added waves across their rainbow painting and labeled it with wavelength, crest, trough, amplitude, and frequency.
In the afternoon, students conducted a simple experiment demonstrating how light travels in a straight line (we will continue with this next week and tie it back into photography) and played electromagnetic spectrum trivia games on Kahoot.
It was a busy, busy, busy day, so I didn't get as many work photos as I would have liked today. Sorry!
As we begin our school year and face new challenges, we are seeking new ways to enrich your child's education both in person and virtually. Our current wish list includes a set of classroom cameras, a Tello drone kit, Rubiks Cubes, graphic novels, and more enriching art and tech!

(I'll start posting as soon as I have confirmed which students from each school are on the No Photo List. Thanks for your patience!)
