We have some more beautiful birds finished. The students have worked really hard on these and used a variety of techniques to create the artworks.

Prep Birds
Prep O made beautiful birds today with zipper legs. Great work for fine motor development, improving cutting skills and using pva! These birds will be finding a home around the school. There will be more birds joining them soon.
Grade 3 Annie Sandano Prints
Grade 3 students created gorgeous art based on the work of New Zealand print maker Annie Sandano. Annie works with wood to produce her detailed printing blocks.
We pressed our designs of Australian birds into foam and then printed them.
The students then created lovely geometric patterns with paper cutting to make the floral designs that surround the birds.
Here a few examples but all the work was terrific.
Check them out on display at school.

Grade 4 geometry birds
Grade 4 have been working hard on their beautiful Australian birds.
We started by sketching up the chosen bird and then using a ruler to make straight lines and sharp corners- lots of geometry in this art project.
Next the students added line work to their birds and used water colour pencils to add colour. Here are a few lovely works, some finished others almost done.
Students were asked to think about their colour combinations. A rainbow of colours or a limited palette. All effective and all beautiful.
Perhaps a few budding graphic artists!
