Our Assembly

Today it was Room 18's turn to present the Middle School Assembly. Grace and Khan capably led us. The class recited their Taniwha poem, sang "I Saw a Taniwha"  and showed off their Taniwha art work which they had created with Ms Maloni. 

Well done everyone!

Well done Nicole!

Art Week Fun in the Sun

Today we went outside and worked with chalk on the concrete creating designs inspired by the artist Warren Pohatu.

Colour Wheel Learning

Ms Maloni taught us about the colours on the colour wheel:
primary colours, secondary colours, warm colours, cool colours, contrast colours and complementary colours. Sienna made a chart recording these. In the photo, Isla is sharing her knowledge with Ms Maloni. After that we experimented with the colour ideas on our sketches.

Arts Week Dragon Art

Today we started our art unit with Ms Maloni. We are working to complete a piece of art for our calendar art and a piece of art for the School Art Exhibition.
We started with a story, Ignis. After that we looked at pictures of different dragons. Next we practised sketching the parts of a dragon...head, wing, foot and tail. What a lot of super artists we have in Room 18!
