Grade 5 Viking Projects

This week, students in Mme Sylvie’s class presented their CANVA projects on the Vikings which they had been working on for many weeks in collaboration with their classmates. Together, we reviewed the project rubric prior to the presentations to ensure nothing had been omitted. One of the necessary components was the making of an artifact of their choice representing the Vikings. Students took pictures of their creations and inserted them onto their CANVA slides side-by-side with the original artifacts. Please take a look at their amazing presentations below.
