Favorite Art

'Cuck-Cuck-Cuck'

Hello!!

Greeting everyone i'm back and the grey teal is this weeks bird call. Usually seen in small flocks of about 10-50 birds, the grey teal is native to New Zealand and is protected and can be found throughout the country.

As all of you know . . . we just recently had the art exhibition last

Thursday, (By the way, everyone did a great job on that it all looks

super cool) anyway for this weeks task we have to post a picture on

our blog of our favorite piece of art that we did, as well as another

photo of our favorite piece from another class.

Lets start off with my favorite piece from our class . . .

First up is the X-Wing!!

It's so cool, but it was originally going to be a moon . . . yip you heard me a moon! going to be placed just underneath major tom (The astronaut) to give it the effect of it 'falling' down to the moon.

Yeah but as you can see it didn't quite get to the finished product because it started to turn out to be a big pile of weirdly cut wire . . .

Yip that failed a bit . . . okay a lot!!! and yeah I know it isn't even

hemispherical but look what it turned out to be! an extremely big X-Wing! It doesn't really fit in our classroom ether, and it is only being held together by a few blobs of glue, and a couple of broom sticks.

Everyone in Rm12 helped assemble both the X-Wing and Major Tom.

My favorite piece of art from another class comes from room 9.
Their art theme was mountain ranges and alpine. I just think that they are so cool. Everyone worked really hard on them and the rest of the art throughout the school.

Overall well done everyone! all the classes look so cool!!

Random Fact for this week . . .

The volcano in Indonesia poors out "Blue Lava" but it isn't rally lava itself, due to the combination of sulfuric gases in contact with the air at temperatures above 360°C. There's so much sulfur, that at times it flows down the rock face as it burns, making it seem as though blue lava is spilling down the volcano slopes. But because only the flames are blue, rather than the lava itself, the effect is only visible at night—during daytime, the volcano looks like any other.
