Spring flowers and math

Spring brings new growth. In this mural that the students completed with Ms. Collins, we see the beautiful bright colours of new flowers and the tender green of the new grass.

From this mural students will gather information to create a graph. They will learn to ask questions about data such as "how many red flowers, how many purple?" and "how many more red flowers than purple?" They will investigate their findings and come up with conclusions and hopefully more questions to ask.

As an art project our Spring mural brightens the hall and creates an atmosphere of beauty!
