Well in this case the cats are our Year 7 and 8 students and on a Tuesday they go to technology at Lincoln Primary. This leaves our fabulous Year 5 and 6 students to "play" in Rimu. Each term (on a Tuesday) we 'play' as part of a special project and this term our project is "Be a Detective!"
The project has started with us looking at fingerprints. After getting a little messy, we've learnt that finger prints are made up of whorls, loops and arches. All of our finger prints are unique to us and while some of our prints might look like others they are not the same.
. 
We then used our finger prints as inspiration for our art work. We magnified part of one of our finger prints and then used pastels. We think they turned out pretty awesome, what do you think?

Kia ora Rimu,
ReplyDeleteThese pictures look really awesome, they're so colourful and we can see patterns. It must be fun to play while your mice are away. We wish our mice were away every week too!
What is the next thing you will be learning about in your Detective unit?

Hi Rimiu,
ReplyDeletethe finger print art looks super cool. It kinda reminds me of koru and big huge spirals.
Do you have any other animals with in your class?
Kia ora Rimu Class,
ReplyDeleteThese work look pretty fantastic, they look better than using paint brushes. During Mondays year 7s go to Tech and we do Art last term when they're away now we do Cooking. I appreciate the work you guys did.
What Detective problem will you do next
