The Year 1-2 students are learning to use various techniques to depict sea creatures. They applied the collage technique to their drawings and used splattering and dripping methods to express sea life. By experimenting with different materials, they are enhancing their creativity.
The Year3-4 students are continuing their Vincent Van Gogh project.
This week, they completed the portrait of Joseph Roulin and spent the remaining time drawing one of Vincent Van Gogh’s well-known works of their choice.
The artworks created over the past few weeks will be beautifully displayed.
Special thanks to Mrs. Barbara for helping with the display.
Africa has many countries and lots of different cultures.
Some cultures use masks in their special ceremonies and celebrations, but not all cultures do. In some African groups, people have used masks for thousands of years.
Masks can cover the face or head and come in many styles, shapes, and designs. Some masks might look fierce, funny, or be made for important people.
African masks are often geometrical and symmetrical.
We looked at masks for inspiration for creating our own masks and started to design.
This week, we took shots for creating the stop motion animation titled “Eating a Watermelon.” Each group came up with fun and different ideas. We will finalize the editing next week.
FS1-2 kids created a raincoat, rain boots, and umbrella after seeing the story of a rainy day. We drew various patterns on the umbrella and decorated the raincoat. Then, we drew puddles, clouds, thunder, and more. We can clearly understand and feel the rainy day with our paintings. Their completed paintings are amazing! Well done!!!
This week, we had a time to express the frog drawing and the pond with various materials that we did last week. We attached sugar paper to the lily pad and coloured the pond with watercolour paints.
It was a time to explore various materials such as markers, sugar papers and watercolour paints.
This week, we learned about the background of how Vincent van Gogh created the portrait of Joseph Roulin and their relationship. We discussed the emotions they shared through that painting and sketched our own style of Josph Roulin’s portrait.
We’ve been learning and investigating various skills that artists have tried. This week, we’re continuing to explore Seurat’s pointillism. We’ve been using original colors and adding them to create different tones that look natural. It takes a lot of effort to place each dot on our painting. Well done, everyone, for your patience and hard work.
This week, we’ve been learning how to create stop motion animation. We’ve prepared to draw some images for the title “Eating a Burger and Watermelon.” The kids discussed how they’re going to craft the story and assigned roles for each part.
This week, they’ve shown great responsibility in their roles and have focused on their work exceptionally well. Well done!
The FS1-2 kids have been learning about the weather, focusing on rainy days this week.
We discussed our feelings during rainy days, what we wear, and what we need to stay dry.
To explore further, we created clouds, raindrops, and puddles using cotton and paints.
