Lucy 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 like my sculpture because it has heaps of colours.

Lucy Autumn Leaves

I like my leaf because it is red. It was easy to do because you had to do stripes that touched each other.

Lucy: 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.

The brothers caught the sun because they wanted to do more work, because the days were so short.

Lucy's 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 sparkles on the computer picture. The painting was easier to od than the computer picture. I did the computer picture with Molly.

Lucy's Caterpillars

The Caterpillar is stripy.

Lucy's Chalk Writing

I like the name with the star next to it the best because the 'y' has the tail under the line. - Lucy 21/3/08

Elmer the Elephant by Lucy

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 it's colours and I would improve it by putting more colours on it.
