Art Week - Mask Making

This week is Art Week.  Room 22 students are making masks inspired by the contemporary artist Romuald Hazoumé.  He is from Benin and is known for his art works made from using discarded plastic containers.

Here we are creating our masterpieces ...

Options - Beginning our sculptures!

 Here we are creating the first of our sculptures.

Thanks to everyone for bringing in lots of bottle lids (more still appreciated, thank you so much).

Maths Learning

Room 22 students are learning how to share their learning using digital technologies. Here are some students sharing the strategies they used to solve their maths problem.

Options

Today in options the Enviro Sculpture Group got creative and designed some possible sculptures.  We then shared our designs and voted on what designs we would like to make in our future option classes.

Here are some photos of our designs.

Bottle Lids/Caps

This term we will be doing some activities that use recycled lids and bottle caps. 

It would be appreciated if students could save lids and caps and bring them into class.

Thank you 

ANZAC Biscuits

Today we have eaten ANZAC biscuits kindly baked by our lovely teacher Miss N. They tasted wonderful. They were golden and crispy. When I saw the golden crispy biscuits, my mouth started to water. They looked delicious. When I tasted the biscuits, it was delightful, crunchy and soft. We had ANZAC biscuits because it is nearly ANZAC day.

What effect do humans have on Earth?

Room 22 is experimenting what impact items we use have on the environment. We are testing to see whether some daily items we use decompose or not. 

We are testing a plastic bag, apple core, cardboard and tissue paper. We are seeing if they decompose or not in water, air and soil.  Below are our hypotheses.
