Completed Bike Art

Here are some of the completed pieces of Bike Art. See the earlier post to check if we have managed to replicate the original work. Let us know what you think in the comments.

Exhaust Experiment

We have again been lucky enough to use a kit from The House of Science. This set of experiments dealt with air pollution. The children loved the hands on nature of the experiments.

Smog experiment

Another great experiment from the House of Science.

Bike Art

We have been busy creating art based on parts of a bike

Step 1 - take a photo of only one part of a bike
Step 2 - print photo of the bike onto the back of a map
Step 3 - carefully cut out the bike and glue onto a plain white sheet of paper
Step 4 - paint

Here are some photos of the process we have been going through

 

 

 

What we are hoping they will look like in the end. I think we are doing well.

 

The Cay

We are reading a book called The Cay. Its about a young boy and old man stranded on a small cay called Devils Mouth. We had to create a google drawing of the island. After each chapter we had more ideas to put the island. We had time to make these as an activity for reading.

Swim It

We have been going to swimming lessons at the Greerton Pool once a week for hour long lessons with trained swimming coaches.

ANZAC Art

The background to the art was a portion of a journal story about WW1. we placed wavy brown and black lines over the articles. The children thought these represented the hills of Gallipoli, trenches, sadness, death, and dirt.

The poppies were made from heart shapes and represent the love for the soldiers and our country. the red is a stronger colour than the black.
