Jayden Paper Sculpture

We made paper sculptures thinking about colour, shape and space. Then we photographed them ourselves. Here are my thoughts about my sculpture:

You can push the yellow bit down and it goes bounce and a person can step up on it if there is a fire and they can squirt the fire. The orange bit is a tunnel.

Autumn Leaves: Jayden

I like the colours of the leaf that I printed. The printed leaf and sketched leaf were the easiest to do. The wax rubbing was hard because you needed two people.

Jayden: Mother's Day Card

We used finger prints to make the flowers and bees on these Mother’s Day cards. My mum is fantastic. My mum takes me to the gym.

Jayden: Maui and the Sun

We read the legend of Maui and The Sun and then coloured our own maori sun designs. This is what I wanted to say about the legend.

Maui wanted the sun to slow down.

Jayden Wiggle PIcture

To make our 'Wiggle" pictures firstly we painted a long, black, wiggly line starting on one side of the page and ending on the other side. The different parts of the line could touch but were not allowed to cross over. Next we used 4 different colours to paint in the spaces. We tried hard not to paint spaces next to each other the same colour. Finally we added texture using black and white paint and small patterns of dots, circles, waves, crosses and seagulls. In ICT we made another wiggle picture using tuxpaint or kidpix on the computer.

I like the dots on my picture because they are small. I like the painting and the computer picture but the computer picture was easier to do.

Jayden's Scary Spider

We painted these spiders as part of our work on the sound 's'. I liked that the spider is purple and Lucia liked that it wobbled. I also liked Laura-Joy's spider as it was the same colour as mine: Jayden

Jayden's Caterpillar

The caterpillar is on the leaf.

Jayden's Chalk Writing

I like the name with the star next to it the best because all the letters are sitting on the line. - Jayden 21/3/09

Jayden's Planet

We made these planets as part of our work on the sound 'p'. Our buddies from Room 5 helped us to make the planet rings out of silver foil. We came up with the idea of displaying them alongside our rockets that we made when learning how to count back from 10. Come and check them out in Room 11.

Elmer the Elephant by Jayden

As part of our work on the sound 'e' we read the story of Elmer the Elephant by David Mckee. Then we made our own pictures of Elmer using wax crayon and water colour dyes. I like the colours on my Elmer. I would improve it by putting more colours on it.
