Lower School Students Combine the Science of Light and Shadow with Storytelling
In the CREATE space, students in kindergarten through fifth grades have been engaged in activities related to the year-long theme of light and color. Their ongoing study of light has logically led to light's opposite, shadow. The current unit combines the science of light and shadow with the artistry of light design and storytelling. Media Resource Specialist Sandee Bisson elaborated: “Through text, we've learned how shadows are formed and have experimented with making and manipulating shadows of our own. Now we are enjoying the play of shadow and light as we combine many of the lessons to create shadow puppet skits.”
“When science and art are combined, it feels magical,” Ms. Bisson continued. “The two compliment each other and allow students to be incredibly creative.” MORE PHOTOS
