Calendar Art

For our calendar art this year we choose to do zentangle.

Zetangle is a form of art when you use patterns to fill in the section of the shape.

Some of the patterns we used were zander, crescent moon, static, tipple, mist and more. 

We were allowed to choose an animal and put our zentangle patterns into it.   

Here is mine.

Geometric Patterns

In maths we have been learning about 2D and 3D shapes.

This week we made our geometric patterns.

We had to use rulers,protractors and some colouring pencils.

My star is a 6 pointer and I went 60 degrees before starting a new point. Before we started, we learnt about the degrees on a protractor which helped us with the lines that formed the star.   

Here is mine.

Data disk

In class for the last week or two we have been researching and reading about worms. Once we had got all our information about worms we had to put it in to groups like all the interesting things about worms, different types of worms, what eats them and what they eat. Once we put our information into groups we had to start writing an explanation about what we learnt about worms. After we had finished our explanation we had to start our data disk. On my data disk I have how many species of worms are there, how do worms eat, what worms can eat and how long can a worm grow to.
Here is mine.

My garden design

The last few days we have been working on our garden. 

We had to show our knowledge of what we can find out about the seed packet and what it tells us.

The seeds I did was Carrots and Lettuce. I have information about if it grows in full sun or part sun, were it grows, the depth,plant space and the row space. I also had what soil it likes which was alkaline for both.

Here is mine.

Photosynthesis

Photosynthesis

We had to either draw or make a google drawing about what we learnt about photosynthesis. I decide to make a google drawing to show my knowledge. On my google drawing I had information about the Sunlight,Carbon-Dioxide,Water,Oxygen and Nutrients. 

Here is my google drawing.

Matariki Poster

Matariki Poster 

Matariki has been part of our field to table inquiry. We were told we had to make a way of presenting our knowledge of Matariki. I decided to make a poster that had all the information I had learnt about Matariki. I found out what Matariki is,some information about planting crops and other information. I also added some photos. Here is my poster.

Starry night art

We have been creating a piece of art work by Vincent van gogh. We got to use all different colours and different shapes. We used a technique called double dipping. We used chalk for drawing the hills and the tree. Then I painted the stars and wind. After I had finished my hills and tree, I drew with black pastel were I had put chalk. Here is my art.
