Kindness Day

 This week we have been reading and learning about flowers. 

On Friday we chose to have a day of art and craft. We made a flower garden using vivid and crayons to do this we followed a youtube clip. We practised first on newsprint as we had not drawn with a vivid before. We were very pleased with the outcome and hope to do an activity like this again soon.

A tip from Room 6

If you need to find the middle of your paper without using a ruler or marking the paper with a pencil, fold your paper in half and then in half again to make quarters. Where the two lines cross is the centre of your paper.

We also made a four tier flower using watercolours.We had four different sized flowers to paint. We discovered how to make our paint colours lighter and darker with how much water we had on our paint brush. When the paint was dry we cut out our flowers and then folded the petals into the centre of the flower, this gave our flower a three dimensional effect. We were very happy with our flowers.

At the end of the day we took them home with us. We are going to give them to someone who has been kind to us.
