AVI1O - Blissymbols!!

One of our important areas of study in Grade 9 art is to be able to "...apply elements and principles of design to create art that communicate ideas and information."   Today we focused on Blissymbols.

Yesterday, we had a presentation on inclusion.  Our guest speaker communicated to us that he learned to use Blissymbols as a vital way to communicate.  If you had no other means of communication, then an international means of communicating through symbols might change your life!

To make our classroom more inclusive, we worked to create small placards that communicate the utility of everyday objects in our environment.
