7MB Art

During the course of this term the students have been working towards a role play oral presentation.

Each student had to orally discuss their chosen Antarctic explorer. They had to dress up and present an innovative oral in the first person acting as their explorer. A bit of a challenge but they were up to the task. You can see by the photos they really took to the task and put in a lot of effort.

Also during this term we have created Antarctic landscapes using water colours and only one or two colours were used. The students had to use shading techniques to gain 3D visualisations.

We have also been improving on our writing and researching skills for homework and all students have made dramatic progress. It has been a big learning curve for some and the students have had to manage their time very wisely to ensure that their home and school based assignments are in on time.

We have recently completed our Religious Education assignment based on designing a Church for a particular community. They had to create and explain the cultural and historical influences that formed their designs. Again some very creative and well informed designs.

It has been a wonderful and awe inspiring term and the students in 7MB have come a very long way since the first day I met them all and began forming 7MB.

May I take this opportunity to thank each and every family for their ongoing support. It is greatly appreciated by the teacher and your children. We couldn’t do it without you.

I know that I will need some assistance next term as this, once again, is a gigantic and rewarding term. Any assistance by parents will be embraced next term to form our final farewell of the Year 7 students of 2007.

If you can help please let me know and I will collect volunteers’ names now to assist with Graduation.
