Week Six Assembly

During assembly the year 2 neighbourhood was able to present samples of their recent work in art.  Some of the children read briefly to the school to explain these truly remarkable images.

“We are looking at time through growth and how flowers grow in the art room and in the art space in the year 2 neighbourhood.  When a flower gets cut off a bush it dies easily.”

-Maddy

“Each week during Art, we have been recording flowers by painting and drawing them.  Most of the flowers are nearly dead.  You can tell the flowers are dying because they are flopping.”

-Aidan

“We are recording time through the change of our flowers during art classes.  With Hannah we are drawing the flowers every week in art.  Tania helps us to take pictures of our flowers as they change.”

-Arlo S.

“In art, every week we take photos of our flowers and Tanya helps us take the photos.  We had to paint them in our ‘zeens’.  A zeen is like a magazine it’s just you paint not draw.  Some water is pink, and blue but mine is the original.  My favourite part is when we paint in our zeens.

-Archie

“We are recording how our flowers change over time.  My flower is about 3 weeks old and my flower is so old it is brown and it stinks.  This activity relates back to our inquiry into time and how time is shown through growth.”
