Painting a Picture in the reader's head

WALT use our senses in our writing to paint a picture in the reader's head.

Here is an example of my writing.  Can you imagine the scene in your head?

I was in the dark, creepy forest. I could hear leaves rustling, birds chirping and water dripping. I walked
along the path. And saw a huge shadow behind me. It was a python snake. It started to slither on me. I
tried to stay still but it climbed on my shoulder. I screamed and ran when I realised that there were
bugs and insects on me. Then I touched my face.  I'd been bitten by the python. I saw a crystal clear lake
nearby. So I went and jumped in. It was so nice I felt I was in a nice warm pool. I got bored. So I went to
go and put my clothes on. Then I started to walk when I saw a pool of snakes. I ran away. TThen they got me so my life was over.

Mosaic

W.A.L.T show the cultures in our class through art

This term we have been doing mosaics. We had to pick a design from one country of the classroom. I did New Zealand. It was a fern.  We had to put little blocks on to the paper to make our picture.

This is my mosaic.

Eraser Face

W.A.L.T do art like Sebastian Del Grosso

This week we have been  doing an Erase-a-face. We did this by taking a photo holding a Eraser and then cutting out half of my face. We glued it on paper and then drew the missing part of my face back in. We were learning to sketch. 

Here is my Erase-a-face
