Jenna Paper Sculpture

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

I made a new shape, it is yellow. There is an orange flag and 2 rolly things.

Jenna: Maui and The Sun

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

Maui's brothers are helping him to make the sun move slowly.

Jenna Wiggle PIctures

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 colour of my picture best. I like my painting best. It was easy to do the dots on it.

Jenna's Scary Spider

We painted these spiders as part of our work on the sound 's'.

Jenna'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 Jenna

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 can see yellow, blue, green and red on my Elmer.
