Term 3 Art Wrap Up

What a busy term we have had!!!

Pod 1 students have tried using brushes to write Korean characters and seen how hanji paper is made; they also drew the designs on their woodwork bags and did some paper weaving. The Preps also had some extra time in the Art room…drawing, pasting and cutting – the chalk drawing on the concrete proved very exciting.  Both Pod 1 & 2 students have used tissue paper to decorate the lovely Korean masks that EJ brought to school.

Pod 2 students also tried their hands at dry felting before making their amazing penguins, which are on display in the Agora.

Pod 3 students started their free choice projects…drawing, construction, clay models; the variety of art works was amazing. Some of them even turned out well. 🙂

Finally all Pods had a go at yarn bombing in front of their classrooms. The students wound wool around trees, posts and through fences to brighten up the school ground.

 

 

PENGUINS!!!!

The Pod 2 penguins enclosure is pretty much complete. Our penguins are looking fantastic except for a few zombie ones which look freaky. Everytime we add an extra penguin, we have to clean up all the snow (bean bag filling) from the floor.

Thanks to all the people who brought in bottles. If you want to make a penguin of your own, it’s not too hard. Just follow the steps in one of our pictures.
