Where are your parents from?

Did they migrate from another country? If so, from where?

In term 3, stage 2 will be working on Portraiture in Visual Arts. We will be looking at portraits painted by artists and drawing our own.

Here is a video called “Draw Fast a Face” by Kipiktu to show us how a portrait may be drawn.

This video is from youtube so you may not be able to see it at school (unless I am logged in). If you access youtube at home make sure a parent or carer is watching with you.

First we rolled the papers into cylinder shapes because we knew that cylinders bend in the middle.

Then we squeezed the narrow ends into the wide ends. We could all fit through.

Next we drew hatching. Then we shaded with our finger. Lastly we made a streetscape and it looked 3-dimensional.

At the end of May 3GK went to the art show. I saw all the children’s art work.

I sketched houses and I voted for my favourite. I saw my cousin’s drawing.

We drew a street. We shaded with our finger. We drew the houses lightly. Then we made them darker. We drew the street smaller and smaller that means perspective.

And we sketched the street . My teacher put the paper on the display.

We wanted to find out which brand of batteries last longest.

by Sabrina

Photographs by Sheri.

What we used:

We used three different brand of batteries: Eveready, Coles and Varta.
And we used torches that were the same.

by Susan

Hypothesis:

Most of us predicted that the eveready battery would last the longest because of the ads on TV. Kyle predicted that the Varta battery would last longest.

Method:

We switched on all the torches at the same time. We recorded what time we turned on the torches.

by Emeline

Results:

The Coles battery ran out first.

by Cecilia.

Eveready lasted next. Eveready lasted only for 13 hours.

By:Jen.

The Varta battery lasted longest.

by Vicky

Graph by Jenny.

Coles lasted for 3 hours.
The Eveready battery lasted for 13 hours
and the Varta ran out after 16 hours.

by Wally

How much does it cost to run each battery per hour?

The results are that the Coles battery was the cheapest battery but costs more money than the other batteries per hour. Per hour Coles cost, 62 cents.

by Jenny

The Varta battery lasted longest but it costs the same amount as the Eveready battery per hour. They both cost 15 cents per hour.

SWIMMING CARNIVAL

On Wednesday 19 March it was swimming carnival.

We sat under our house banners then after a little while it was free time. At free time you can do anthing you want to.

After free time we watched the 50m race.

Later on we played a bottle top game. You have to get as many bottle tops as you can from the water. Then it was recess.

Next we played frisbee. You have to collect all the frisbees from the water and the team with the most wins. Lots of people got ribbons.

Then it was lunch. We ate food and played.

After lunch we got points for our team. Then we had free time again. The water was very cold. After a little while we had to go back to school but before going to school we got points again.

I  had a great time at the swimming carnival.
