Making Cave Paintings


As part of our Inquiry, AS1 has been studying Ancient Civilizations. We made some cave art inspired by the paintings found in the Lascaux Caves in France.

Upcycle Challenge



Today, we went to the Upcycle challenge and we saw some very cool creations. I saw a green tank made of cardboard. It was the best. I also saw some planes made of paper and tape. One of the planes had wheels and was made out of a bottle. The one that I really liked was Jacob’s planter because he got a broken bottle and put parsley in the bottle. He painted the bottle yellow, green, red, dark green, and brown.

In the hall, I saw an amazing tall rocket ship with a Lego person inside it. Next, I saw a plant in a bottle. It was cool because it was hanging off a chair. My third favorite one was the submarine one. It was grey and had a telescope on the top. My real favourite ones were Jeba’s creations because he made a helicopter and a relaxing beach place.

Today, we visited the upcycle challenge. We saw my brother’s work and it was a big house.  I helped him with it. I really liked the unicorn with lolly hair and a lolly tail. It looked like a unicorn god and it is the god of lollies!

Today, our class went to the hall to look at all the Upcycle Challenge projects. My favourite ones were the military tank and the Minecraft creeper. For the military tank, I think they used a cardboard box and lots of green paint. I think the creeper also used cardboard, green paint, and black paint.

In the hall, I saw a beautiful upcycle unicorn. The unicorn had lots of treats on it. It was violet and mawhero (pink). Did you think the unicorn was cool? When I saw it, I felt like I wanted to eat the candy because it looked yummy. I felt wonderful as I looked around the hall at the projects.
