In the art room at Margaret Chase Smith, we continue to have a blast creating art! Recently second grade students were challenged to use their creative brains and problem-solving skills to make mini assemblages using found objects. Second grade students observed and discussed examples of assemblage art before they began their own mini assemblages. We look forward to seeing you all for the MCS Art Show the last week in May.

The fourth graders in Mrs. LaPointe’s class at Carl J. Lamb have been coding. They started with “unplugged” coding to learn about sequencing and creating loops. Students then moved to “block” coding on Code.org. Students wrote code by assembling blocks in sequence to make a character complete a task. So far they have helped collect acorns and they moved to helping Laurel collect treasure. Coding is a great skill for students to learn. Not only does it teach computer science skills it also teaches perseverance, creative thinking, and analytical thinking.

Margaret Chase Smith’s coyote pups worked hard last month with the theme of honesty. Last Friday, they presented their new theme for the month of April: Cooperation! Coyotes learned what it means to cooperate, and they even had some visitors from the Sanford Fire Department come to discuss how they use cooperation every day in their line of work.
