Self Portraits

We have been working on self portraits over the last few weeks.
Here are the steps we have taken

First we outlined our face in pencil


Then we painted in our skin colour.


After that, we used sharpie to outline features such as our eyes, nose and mouth


Next it was time to paint our hair, eyebrows and lips


 then colour in our pupils and paint our lips


Finally we cut out t-shirts and painted bright backgrounds for our art



Pop in to see the finished art.

They look wonderful.

Walking trip to Waitaramoa Reserve

What a great field trip we had today.
Room 19, 20 and 21 walked down to Waitaramoa Reserve.
We were looking out for creatures in food chains.
We found great examples of producers (plants that make their own food),
primary consumers (herbivores)
secondary and tertiary consumers (carnivores)
We even found some decomposers breaking down creatures into nutrients which help the producers grow again.

Each group took some pictures - here are a few
Can you work out whether these are producers, consumers or decomposers?
