Survivor Winners Day 3

Our Day 3 winning team secured a massive score of 63 out of 78 - the game is getting harder and teams are having to work more strategically to get maximum points in each category.

So well done to 'BG' who are made up of Adana, Nikia and Sam.  Their team made it to 1st place with only one point difference!

The overall winners for the game so far are still 'Crash & Burn' with a total of 218 out of 254.  They are  now only 6 points ahead of the 2nd place team - BG!!!

Facial Expressions

Our very last Art piece for term three focussed on facial expressions.  We studied cartoon-like expressions from the internet and then replicated them on four figures.  We were able to choose to colour with pastel or paint or a combination of the two.

Olympics: Chocolate Challenge

Our third day of Olympics saw us taking part in a Chocolate Challenge.  We had to eat a set amount of chocolate with our hands behind our back in the fastest time.

Our winners were....

Gold Medal: Great Britain

Availll

We are lucky enough to be taking part in a reading programme that actually involves us watching movies for most of the term.  Availll is based on Reading and Watching movies and making links back to the novels they were actually based on.

One of the movies we have seen is The Wizard of Oz and the task involved us searching for the book online, reading a chapter of it and identifying 10 things that are in the book but never made it to the movie or were altered in the movie.

Here we are busy reading the novel online.

Skate Boards

Another art piece we have been working on for a while are our skate boards.  

First we had to cut out a skate board shape from card.  After applying two layers of papier mache to it we then coated the skate board in white paint.  Once it had dried we drew our design on and then painted, collaged or dyed our designs.  

We had to have our initials and date of birth on our skate board but the rest of the design process was entirely up to us.  we have used images, symbols, words and colours that mean something to us.

Once we had completed them, Mrs Young attached some velcro dots to the back so that they can stick to our walls.  Very clever!

Here are the first of our completed skate boards.
