BLOOMING CREATURES FROM UNDER THE SEA

Hi kids! 

Here's the video with some of our under the sea spring creations!

Our mermen and mermaids are inspired by Picasso portraits. We used the "Roll a Picasso face" dice game (it was super fun and useful!). The we designed their bodies. Then we invented their personality, likes and dislikes and described them. We then used them to play "Guess who" (this mini project was related to our physical description lessons).

The submarines are inspired by Pop art patterns, lines and colours! Third graders decided the Beatles needed a new updated version of their yellow submarine.

OCEAN MONSTERS - OUR PAPER MACHE EXPERIENCE

Hi kids! Here's a little video to summarize our paper maché experience. To complement our ocean project, and as part of the school Nature project, we designed and created the following ocean monsters. It was very cool and fun! 

COOL COLOURS /WARM COLOURS

We have been learning about different types of colours. We have learned that there are COOL colours (blue, purple, green, grey, ...) and WARM colours (red, yellow, orange, brown...). To work on these concepts, we made a painting choosing either cool colours or warm colours. Since we were also working on our ocean unit, we decided our painting will represent four oceans made with patterns and just 3 colours. Here you are the result:
