Sculptures of Clay and Soap

These are our clay sculptures we made at the Art Gallery and had on display at our Art Expo.

We also did soap sculptures which are at the bottom of this post.

Going to the Gym

We have been going to the Boys and Girls gymnastics stadium. 

It is fun to learn how to roll the right way.

We have practised balancing in lots of ways on the high and low beams.

Stepping over cones and skipping on the beam takes practice. 

Handstands are challenging.

We use the wall to support ourselves.

We like hanging from the bar and counting to ten.

Rolling into the pit is exciting.

We get the giggles before we land plonk in the pit of sponge.

Getting out of the pit can be a challenge. We use lots of muscles.

The easiest way is to climb up the mattress.

Daffodils

 We made these daffodils out of paper for the first day of spring.

We enjoyed making the zig zag folding for the trumpet and the petals formed a star pattern.

It was also daffodil day in New Zealand so we bought a gold coin to school to raise money for people who have cancer.

We also wrote daffodil stories and looked at the flowers growing outside our room in the gardens.

Fun Stuff

 Our Giant Clock we made for maths.

 Icky, Sticky, Ooey, Gooey, Slime.

Pavement Art.

 Easter Rabbit Masks.

 Masks we invented.

 A giant collage picture.

 A 4 Wheeled Drive Buggy came to school. It made a really loud noise. We got really excited.

Sewing

We did some sewing in our class. 

The challenge was to make the two beginning letters of our name.

We used a big needle and could choose what coloured wool we liked.

We made the stitches go under and up the hessian like a snake.

 To finish off we made weaving through the loops. Some people did this with another coloured wool.

We liked the way our sewing looked when it was finished.

 We decided what we were going to do with them. Some people were going to give them to someone as a gift.

 Other people were going to put them on their bedroom door or wall.

 We were all proud of our work and showed persistance to complete our task.
