Geometric Art

We were learning the names of 2-D shapes.  Look how creative we are! We have arranged many different 2-D shapes to make some really cool pictures. We were able to name and count the shapes we used and use lots of maths language to describe our art.

Our Art

Look at our whiteboard covered with lovely sunflowers!  James' Nana is an artist. She came in and taught us about warm and cool colours. She brought sunflowers with her for us to observe with our artist's eyes.  Then we coloured in some outlines using oil pastels choosing warm colours. We also experimented with blending some of the pastel colours.      If we finished early we could colour a whole sunflower with stalk and leaves. We could also draw our own sunflower with petals. Thank you, Mrs Evans 😊

We are Scientists

We enjoyed learning what different scientists do. We learnt about the scientific method when recording and conducting experiments. We predicted what would happen when we put different coloured water into containers and linked them with paper towels. Our first experiment didn't work out the way we thought it would! This experiment 'walking water' linked in with our art, learning about how primary and secondary colours are made. We made some more 'magical colour mixes' with our food colouring and milk experiment... no one predicted what would happen there! We learnt about the enamel on our teeth and how it is like the shell on an egg. We soaked an egg in fizzy drink and saw how its colour changed. Then we got to brush it with toothpaste and saw the transformation.  We will all remember to brush our teeth! We loved our exploding film canisters. They did not do what we expected!  When we understood what happened when we mixed an acid wit

I see, I think, I wonder

Today we were learning to look carefully with our eyes and notice details in a picture. Then we had to think and give our thoughts and ideas about what we could see. Finally, we had to write 3 things that we were wondering about the picture or situation and we could use our imagination. This was the picture we were looking at: I See I Think I Wonder Mila-Rose I think the river is poisonous because it is brown. I see that there is a person who is worried. I see a kid is scared. I see a river. I think that the day over there is Friday. I wonder if they are needing to go to sleep. I wonder if they are going to fall down the bridge. I wonder if they are hungry or thirsty. I wonder if there are crocodiles and sharks. If I was one of them I would be impressed and terrified! Megan I can see people. I can see that the bridge is broken. I can see that the bridge goes down. I can see that the people have got a scared face. I think that the river has some crocodiles. I th
