More pop art!

 Because we loved learning about Romero Britto and his beautiful pop art, we thought we would learn how to make our very own digital pop art. Sticking to cats, the students in Kotare created these wonderful Digital Ca Pop Art.

Sea Science...

This term in science we have been learning about what  makes something living.
We learnt about MRS GREN. Mrs Gren is NOT a person... it is an mneumonic (that means letters or words that help us remember something). MRSGREN helps us remember seven characteristics of living things):

We learnt that all living things:
- Move
- Respire (that means breathe)
- Sense the world (like through sight, hearing, tasting, touching and smelling)
- Grow
- Reproduce  themselvse
- Excrete (get rid of waste materials from your body...)
- Need nutrition

We created a fact file to show these characteristics in interesting sea Animals:

Art Works About Water

This is our Art work about sea creatures. We learnt to do blending with paint and doing lines that flow like water. We made our sea creature by sketching them with pencil. We learnt how to shade with pencil. You need to shade with pencil by using the side of the tip. We also added detail to our sea creature. I liked our blending I liked the smooth lines they feel calm. I like the light blends. Some of the art works kind of look like a galaxy because of the spiral shapes. Next time I would change my colours and creatures. Next time I would change my colours. I learnt how to draw koru's you need to spiral and then change direction and turn. I noticed by looking and seeing whats there and not relying on your memory.
