MinecraftEdu at CSMS!
Mrs. Ward's 8th grade Art classes are using Minecraft to learn about the work of notable architects such as Frank Lloyd Wright. Using a special version of the program called MinecraftEdu, each student in the class was given a large open area to build a replica of a Frank Lloyd Wright structure. Students who were already Minecraft experts jumped in to help beginners learn how to manipulate materials in the program. After choosing a line drawing of a building to replicate, students researched the details of the real-life buildings online to make their models as accurate as possible.

CSMS Learns The Blues
Music students at CSMS were privileged today with a presentation by blues artist Scott Ainslie. Scott is a master of the traditional blues guitar styles that gave rise to
rock ’n’ roll and fueled the folk revival of the 1960’s. He began
playing guitar in 1967, and is a noted performer and scholar with more than a
decade of experience teaching elements of African and African-American music to
students of all ages, both in the classroom and from the stage.
Coming of age during the Civil Rights era, Scott continues to have a deep reverence and affection for cross-racial exchange and approaches the tradition with the care and respect it is due. Welcomed and accepted as an equal by his mentors, Scott honors the African and American roots of the tradition and presents a mesmerizing tour through the music and the history of the Blues. |

These are some samples from our first session taking pictures outside. To see the slideshows that students created with their pictures, click the links below: |
