Arts week

Week 6 was "Arts week" so Room 21 did a variety of art during this week.

First picture is Samoan pattern art that we did last week with Mrs. Baldwin for Samoan language week. We enjoyed drawing different patterns of Samoa.

Second pictures are Giraffe silhouette art we did for Arts week.

Miss Joo read the picture book called "Giraffes can't dance" and we sketched giraffe pattern then coloured it with oil pastels. 

When we finished the pattern background, we cut out giraffe silhouette and glued it in the centre.

It was a hard work colouring the pattern with pastels but we all finished them beautifully!

Next picture is art we call "Crazy hair art" which was a lovely suggestion from Caleb.

Caleb brought the crazy hair art that he did at an afternoon art class and asked Miss Joo if we can do it together as a class, so on Friday, Miss Joo and Caleb showed how to do crazy hair art.

These are our excellent outcome of our crazy hair art. Some of us are still finishing off painting.

Thanks Caleb for suggesting a fantastic art idea!

We all enjoyed creating different kinds of art this week and now our classroom is going to look very colourful with our awesome art so please come in and see them!

Rooster Art

2017 is the year of Rooster in China and Korea.
Room 21 painted Rooster using fork with our awesome Room 1 buddies.
It was fun using a different tool for painting!

Week 2 of Term One

Room 21 have discussed the goals for 2017 and everyone made one goal at least.
We are going to work hard to achieve these wonderful goals!

Last week we started "All about me" art.
It is an iPhone template with 9 boxes of different things we love such as favourite animal, favourite food, a dream destination etc.
Finally we finished them and they are now displayed on our window in Room 21.

Van Diagram is a diagram are used when we want to know the difference and similarities between some things. We used van diagram to research what children in Room 21 like. It was very fun talking to other people asking if they like this or that or both!

This week our poem of the week is called "Summertime" and we found our first wow word of the year which is the word 'treasure'. We discussed what it means to us, found the definition in the dictionary (something valuable) and also drew pictures of treasure.

2017 is the year of rooster in China. Room 21 children have made roosters that has a Chinese character of rooster on its body. We will be doing some more rooster art over the next few weeks to celebrate the Chinese new year.
