5th Graders explored blending, layering, and other techniques with oil pastels in Art.
This week 4th & 5th grade students visited Traverse de Sioux Treaty Site to learn about our local history in connection with a unit in library media class. This field trip was made possible by a grant from the Minneapolis Foundation for Native American Education which Mrs. Ranft applied for and received. The students enjoyed the stories and exploration of this historic area! Thank you also to the chaperones and the wonderful volunteers at the Treaty Site!
