I would love to know what you think of it.jdhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12775085299874824485noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4971082009491842632.post-56290685061463928742008-05-09T17:17:00.002+02:002008-05-09T17:30:43.829+02:00Sketching at Chateau de PenthesYesterday we took our clipboards, some stiff white cartridge paper and a 3B drawing pencil to Chateau de Penthes. We were going to do some sketching.<br /><br />I decided to draw the view of the trees. Take a look at my sketch.<br /><br /><a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/class2ipregny/SketchingViewOfTrees/photo#5198392374787313522"><img src="http://lh3.ggpht.com/class2ipregny/SCRmUpZMD3I/AAAAAAAAGlY/Ax8KFKE9Ffo/s288/IMG_5695.JPG" /></a> <br /><br />How do you think it compares with the real thing?<br /><br /><a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/class2ipregny/SketchingInChateauDePenthes/photo?authkey=cwk2lVLJk3E#5198069166798143074"><img src="http://lh6.ggpht.com/class2ipregny/SCNAXdzp_mI/AAAAAAAAGgk/WYe9ZHWAHcQ/s288/IMG_5669.JPG" /></a>jdhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12775085299874824485noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4971082009491842632.post-5297544797736756732008-04-24T16:48:00.005+02:002008-04-24T18:16:07.997+02:00Cave Painting (or drawing on the white chalk with a blackboard)During our Unit of Inquiry on Materials, we started reading the book, 'Stig of the Dump' by Clive King. Stig is a caveman who lives at the bottom of an old quarry close to Barney's grandmother's house. Barney finds Stig one day when he falls through the roof of Stig's den. They become friends, even though they cannot talk to each other. <br /><br />Since the quarry is no longer in use, people throw all their rubbish away down there; Stig is good at finding new ways in which to use old things.<br /><br />On the same day that they cut down an enormous tree (getting warm once in the process) and then use it to start a fire (getting warm for the second time) Stig picks up a piece of charred wood and uses it to draw an amazing hunting scene on the chalk wall of the den.<br /><br />Then we had a go at using charcoal and chalks to make our own hunting scene. We dusted the paper with charcoal powder and smudged it to give it a greyish background. Then we used charcoal and chalk to make our scene. <br /><br /><a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/class2ipregny/CavePaintings/photo#5192819847452780034"><img src="http://lh5.ggpht.com/class2ipregny/SBCaI3YFZgI/AAAAAAAAFnE/GgbpNPvcbJs/s288/IMG_5270.JPG" /></a><br /><br />"I like how you drew the horse," said Michelle.jdhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/12775085299874824485noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4971082009491842632.post-19863272358090303572008-04-12T15:40:00.004+02:002008-04-16T15:12:18.323+02:00Mapping the schoolWe asked ourselves; how can we show what our school looks like? After taking a walk around the school, we had a go at trying to make a record of everything; from the classrooms to the kitchen, the music room to the French rooms and the library.<br /><br />Take a look at mine. "I found it really really difficult. First I did the kitchen. I'm not sure if I have everything in the right places. I think I might have missed something.

First it was a box and then I just ripped around it and it made a little carriage. It's a little bit shiny on the outside and inside it's dull. If it got wet inside, I think it would break.<br /><br />If you look carefully you can see the 'serrations' that made it easy to rip.<br /><br /><a href="http://picasaweb.google.com/class2ipregny/Paper/photo?authkey=bU2M0HNlMds#5172114018569492658"><img src="http://lh6.google.com/class2ipregny/R8cKS_6nGLI/AAAAAAAAEqc/kSypa_BXXbY/s144/IMG_4340.JPG" /></a><br /><br />This is a fairy that I made and it's made out of paper. I put a little bit of string on top of her head so it can hang on something.
