My AWESOME term!!

This term, our teacher showed us an awesome computer program called 'Google Sketchup.' On Google Sketchup, you can build things like houses, boats, and much more. For art, we did chalk drawings of cabbage trees. After we had finished doing the chalk, we started to colour our drawings in with pastel. When we had checked that there were no white spaces, we dyed our pictures with black dye. When our pictures had dried, they had a really cool effect. So thats pretty much what Rm 24 has been up to this term.

Phenomenal Paintings

This term we are studing Ancient China our art has been done very nicely because our teacher Mrs M has shown us how to do a very good painting with layers like a base coat, a top coat and detail. We have done things to do with China have a guess...... Did you guess dragon? Then you are right we did do dragons. They are red, green, orange, pink, yellow and purple. We got to use a little bit of gold (A little bit) on the detail. I think our pictures are very bright and make the classroom look colourful

Explanations

This term we've been working on explanations. The first explanations were about how either crabs, starfish or octopus eat. I decided to do it on octopus because I did not know much about octopus how the octopus eat and I was curious. Here is my chart that I did for my explanation.
For those of you who don't know what an explanation is. An explanation is a type of writing where you can not put in your own opinion. You have to explain how something works. Now you know what an explanation is. Well bye for now.
