Our Rainbowland Art!

We're going to tell you about the final piece of art. First we drew our cityscape with pencil onto A3 paper. Next we outlined it with Vivid for the tiny details. After that we used Indian ink for the larger parts of the picture. The Indian ink would make them stand out on the wall. We had to be really careful not to let our sleeves touch the ink. We had to have the bottle hovering above the paper and do it slowly because we couldn't get it off if we made a mistake. We layed our work down to dry for a day. At last we dyed it. All the dyes were very colourful. The colours were blue, green, leaf gree, red, yellow, orange, and purple. They all looked awesome.

It was hard to get the dye in the right spot. -Emma

I thought the hardest part was the pencil drawing because our draft was small and we had to enlarge it for the final picture. -Millie

I thought the easiest part was the Vivid part because we just had to trace over to make it look like Indian ink. -Alfred

Our Science Topic

This week in science we did true and false qestions about water.
Something I believe about water is that the water in our drink bottle is as old as dinosaurs, because I read it in a book and saw it on the computer. -Mariah

This term in science we are learning about water. Something I believe about water is that 1 percent of the world's water is okay for drinking because our teacher reed this book called water and it said that fact.

Family Traditions

Earlier in the term we read a big book called Friendly Families. We found out about some interesting family traditions.
We used Kid Pix to illustrate a statement about our own family traditions.
