Today we walked, in the intense heat, to St. Clair College for our last field trip. Under the instruction of Professor Redko, and some second and third year Interior Design students, our grade six students were able to learn the Google Sketchup software and then work on their own design. It was handled like a mini competition and some of our class won prizes! Congratulations to the following student winners: Brian, Kelly, Julianne, Olivia, Cole, Danu, Allison, and Matt T. Each student also received a St. Clair College pen and lanyard. We were also treated to Timbits (and air conditioning)! The students seemed to love the experience. Special thanks to Mrs. Windhaus who joined and assisted us! If you would like to download the software on your own machine and continue working at home, click on the link below:
