Spacesuits for astronauts

We have designed spacesuits for astronauts.

We even put our countries flags on them.

Clay rockets

We made clay rockets today.

They will look lovely when they are finished.

Can you see our 3D shapes - cylinders, cones, spheres?

Marbling with ink

We had fun marbling with ink.

We know that oil and water don't mix, and by dipping paper into marbling (oily) ink we got really lovely patterns.

We will turn these pages into new planets later this week.

They look so good.

2D Felt Rockets

We used 2D shapes to make some really impressive rockets.

Can you spot rectangles, circles, ovals, stars, triangles and squares?

Hallowe'en art

We enjoyed painting backgrounds, cutting out silhouettes and sticking them on to our backgrounds to make some very scary pictures.

Animation with Lara Luxardi

Our finished animation (Monday).

We are sooo proud.

Thank you so much Lara!

We had a really exciting day today (Thursday)

Lara came to show us how to make our own stop motion animations.

Today we concentrated on making our own sea creatures (with movable parts and 2 sets of eyes) and the backgrounds we will need for the animation.

We had a lot of fun with paint, collage, fabrics, different painting techniques and of course with using our imaginations.

Tomorrow we will concentrate on the animations.

We can't wait!

We have made our creatures, decorated backdrops, and today (Friday).

 Lara helped us to take photos of our animations.  We moved our creatures and Lara took lots of photos.  She will join the photos together and edit them.  We added sounds and Lara will add these to the animations too.

We can't wait to see how our animations will all turn out.
