My Positive and Negative Art!

A few weeks ago, we learnt about Positive and Negative space with our art.

We had an A3 coloured piece of paper 

and a squared, black A4 piece of paper.  

We cut out random patterns out of 

the black piece of paper and flipped 

it round the other way, so there was a 

positive and negative space. 

Here is my artwork. :)

StoryBird Digital Quickwrite

Hi!
As well as a quick write, each week we do a Digital Quickwrite on Storybird.
(https://storybird.com/create/)

Last week, we had to write a picture book about a messy room.

We had to drag and drop pictures of a messy room onto a blank sheet, and then write our own words into the text boxes on the page. 

We could add as many pages as we wanted, and got inspiration from some picture books in our class.

Here is my 'Messy Wonderland' story.

My Quickwrite!

Hi. :)
Everyday, we do a Quickwrite.
The whole class is given the start of a random sentence and we have to complete it.
My latest Quick Write started like this:

Mud oozed up between my toes as 
the sun began its descent, hardening the blanket of mud confining me. Dry particles of dirt scattered aimlessly in different directions, continuously spraying soil in the air like a sprinkler.
The sky had now transformed into a murky, coral colour, accompanied by clouds fluffier than marshmallows.
A giant stadium encircled the mud fighting arena, hosting thousands of fans wearing tacky t-shirts with catchy slogans like: 'Mud Fight 4 Life,' and 'Squirt Some Dirt!'
The crazed fans screamed and hollered in delight as they watched contestants pelt me with mud balls, cheering in unison as the competitors struck their signature poses.
As the torturous day came to an end, the crowd filed out of the arena, snickering as they reminisced the afternoon's events. The remaining crusty patches of mud peeled off my skin, and I smiled confidently to myself when an encouraging thought resurfaced in my mind.
I was going to beat them tomorrow.

Thank you for reading!

My Chapter Chat Art

This is my Crested Caracara information report.
I made this as a Chapter Chat activity and then posted the finished artwork on twitter alongside all the other creations other people had made.

Chapter Chat is an event where we all read a shared book -  the current one is called The Explorer - and every Friday, we answer questions about the book as a class.
Schools all around New Zealand participate in Chapter Chat and share their artworks and answers on twitter.


I hope you like it!
