P4C

Today I did a P4C workshop with Sarah. P4C stands for Philosophy for Children. In P4C we had to answer this question: 'Should we be rewarded for effort at school'. I said Yes because if you work hard at something you should be rewarded for your hard work. I love P4C because it gets your brain working hard to think outside of the box.

A New Year at Enrich

Its Week 7, term 1, 2011

This is my painting of an Avocado and two pears. This type of painting is called 'Still Life'

Do you like it? I hope you do, I'm proud of this painting because I've never used acrylic paint before. There was a plate of fruit with a light shining on it to give shadow. We had to think carefully about adding shading to our painting. We watched a youtube clip before we started so that we could get the shapes and shading right. Even the easels were set up in different angles to the fruit so that we all had different views to work from and to show different shading.

This year is a whole lot different than last year because there are yr 3, 4, 5 and 6 on the same day! Plus since week 2 we have all been managing our own time and going to the workshops we would like to do!
