World of Wearable Arts

Today we watched Youtube clips of the WOW show in preparation for creating our own wearable art pieces.

We were allowed a full newspaper, 4 sheets of A4 coloured paper, 3 metres of tape, 3 metres of string and 6 straws.

After researching options for an hour, we then had 45 minutes to create our masterpieces before parading them in front of Room 1, our Junior class.  Mr Orr and Mrs Maclean were our judges for the event.

The criteria we were judged on was:
1: The outfit lasting the length of the runway show and judging time.
2: Creativity.
3: The model remaining in character for the entire runway show.
4: The name matching the art piece.

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!!!

Survivor Winners Day 2

Our winners for Day 2 were 'Lost'.  Their team is made up of Alex, Amy and Hannah.  They earned 74 points out of a possible 78.

 Our overall winners for the game so far are still 'Crash & Burn' with an impressive score of 156 out of 176.  They are 7 points ahead of the two teams in 2nd place (Lost, BG).

'Crash & Burn' are made up of Kate, Maegan and Danielle.

Survivor Physical Challenge Day 3

Our third physical challenge had us sitting on imaginary chairs outside.  In teams of two we had to lean against the classroom wall and keep our legs at a 90 degree angle to imitate sitting on a chair.  Teams were disqualified for not following the instructions or receiving 3 warnings.  Team members had to encourage each other because if one member dropped out the other team member had to forfeit as well. By the end of the challenge there were only two teams that earned points - a tough and painful challenge!

Survivor Winners of Day 1

The team that has taken out the most points for Day 1 of Survivor are 'Crash & Burn'.  The team is made up of Danielle, Maegan and Kate.  They scored 96 out of a possible 98 points for the day.

Survivor Physical Challenge Day 2

The physical challenge involved one member from each team holding onto a mesh fence using only hands and feet for the longest time.  The first player dropped out after only 56 seconds but the winning player lasted over 22 minutes!!!

The winner of the challenge was Kaleb!

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.
