PUTTING THEORY INTO PRACTICE!!!

INSTRUCTIONAL WRITING....

This week Room 16 had the chance to do some practical making. For the last couple of weeks we have been doing some instructional writing so we thought why not try making them. 


So as a class we decided to make TOASTIES.  

Check out what we did ....

WEEK #3 ART WITH WHAEA DAGMAR



This week room 16 along with 2 students form room 14 had the privilege  of working with Whaea Dagmar who is our Art and Technology teacher.

Students were able to  create their own 'underwater' work based a study of a visual text. 


They then had to create two drafts before embarking on their final pieces of art; to be completed in chalk, pastel and dye. 

All students thoroughly enjoyed themselves and manage to all complete their pieces of art which are now displayed in the hall.  
Take a look at our work in progress...
