Scraffito Self Portraits

Our art theme this term is 'Self Portraits'. Our latest activity was scraffito art, where we had to fully colour in a background and then paint over the colour with black paint. Once the paint was dry we scratched out our self portrait. We found that the other end of a pencil or paint brush and a ruler were the best tools to use to scratch out the paint. We think they look awesome!!

Maths

With the triathlon happening today we have a much smaller class in Room 7. For maths today we played a card game called "Fishy Fishy". The game was looking at making ten and number bonds to 10. Like the card game go fish, in Fishy Fishy we had to make pairs of numbers but this time the pairs had to equal 10. A very easy game to play with a small group.

STEM

Today the wind and the rain brought a change of temperature to Lawrence. For today's STEM challenge (Science, Technology, Engineering and Maths) groups had the challenge of building a fort/tent to stay sheltered from the wind and rain. The only equipment students could use were: newspaper, masking tape and 2 other class objects. All members of the group had to fit in the shelter and stay warm and dry.
