In celebration of the 50th
anniversary of Whiteoaks Public School, 150 students in grades 4 and 5
participated in a mural making project. Each student designed and painted their
own colorful oak leaf to add to an oak tree forest that lines their hallway. But
this is no ordinary oak tree forest! Students used bright colours and
imaginative patterns and designs to create a multitude of whimsical oak leaves.
Students learned about elements of design and self-expression through visual
arts in this project that aligns with the Ontario Visual Arts Curriculum. |
