Week 5 in Room 7

Wow, what a busy week!

We have started our Van Gogh art. Today we explored techniques such as layering with pastles and using small dot strokes.

We all completed our fractured Fairy Tales and we are now in the process of publishing them into books using dowloaded images and borders.

In Inqury we have talked about what makes a great static image. We are designing posters that show mutli cultural Invercargill.

Yesterday we practiced for cross country, some people were sore today!

Today we enjoyed another Market Day. Our focus for next week is promoting our products using expression, body language, persuasive language, pace, volume, eye contact and jingles.

No wonder we are tired!!!!! Have a great weekend team as week 6 will be just as busy!

Market Day

Market day today was a success. We are quickly learning that getting taxed causes you to loose alot of money! To avoid this, we need to make products that are within the laws of the Government. More children spent today than last week, and some childrns snoodles are quickly running out!
It was really fun and next week we are going to focus on promoting our products using expression, eye contact, body language, projection, paced and using persuasive language.

Have a great weekend everyone, keep practicing your time tables!

OUR BOMBAY DINING EXPERIENCE




We had fun! It was really interesting how many cultures are living in one town.
We found the curry very enjoyable and tasty, we were suprised by this!
It was different in a good way. Invercargill is a multicultural society. It is diverse due to globalisation.
