iSTEAM Balloon Floats

This week in iSTEAM, Grade 1/2 students learned about Tony Sarg, an incredible puppeteer. While listening to the story Balloons over Broadway, students learned about the origins of the Macy’s Thanksgiving Parade in the United States and the life of Tony Sarg. Tony Sarg was the mastermind behind the amazing helium balloons that are seen in the annual parade. Once finished, the students were tasked with creating their own balloons for our Thanksgiving Parade. Take a look below at their creations! Here is the link to a read aloud of the book on YouTube: www.youtube.com/watch?v=rMFNdhvb2a0

About The Author

My name is Shannon Neill and I am currently the Grade 1/2 teacher at AcadeCap. I began my teaching career in 2017 after graduating from McGill University with a Bachelor’s of Education, specialized in French Immersion Pedagogy. Since my first year of teaching, I have been working with Grade 1 and 2 students, from Montreal, to Winnipeg, and now Ottawa, where I have been with AcadeCap since 2018. Working with students in Grade 1 and 2 is definitely something special. The students are curious, honest and so willing to learn and share - I consider myself pretty lucky to be able to learn from my students every day!
