This Term, Grade 3 and 4 students have been introduced to positive and negative space. To foster their learning and understanding of this technique, students designed a "Notan" (pictured below).<br />

These artworks originated in Japan and have been created for many years. Our students were given a black, square piece of paper and cut their own shapes out from each side. They were then flipped over and glued down onto a bright piece of paper (the negative space). The results showed some original and effective designs.

I enjoyed Term One, getting to know the wonderful students and staff. I feel very welcome here and I can't wait to share the adventures, learning experiences, Art works and performances the students and I will be getting up to this year!<br />
<br />
Most recently, the whole school traveled to the Melbourne Arts Center to watch the staged production of "The 52 Storey Treehouse" based on the children's book written by Andy Griffths and Terry Denton.<br />

It was so amazing to see the happy, smiling faces of enjoyment of our students during and after the performance! The experience was definitely one to remember and I am so glad the children have been given this opportunity to engage in the Performing Arts. Thank you to The First Call Fund @ The Melbourne Arts Centre!!<br />
<br />
There are many artworks being created in our Art room, with new learning, exploring and making happening this term. I will update you all soon on the the wonderful creations made in Term One!! <br />

Students in Grade 5 and 6 molded clay into different shapes and sizes. They cut out a circle in the middle of these sculptures and created small holes around this. Patterns were marked in their clay and the artwork was fired in the kiln. </div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
<br /></div>
<div style="text-align: center;">
Once this was completed, the students used water colour oil pastels to brighten the artwork by applying and using a small paint brush dipped in water to evenly cover the piece. Once dry, the weaving was completed by creating a loom using the small holes (looking similar to a spider web). Wool was then weaved using the under and over technique. The final pieces show fabulous, eye catching designs and uniquely presented work!</div>

Plastic bottle tops were collected at home and brought to school. Some were also found at a local Recycled Art shop. We created this sign highlighting one of our school values.</div>

This Art work was inspired by the artist Dale Chihuly, famous for his brightly coloured blown glass sculptures. We created this using plastic bottles and sharpies. It is now hanging like a chandelier in the Art room. </div>

The results were all very unique, developing the students fine motor skills, thinking processes to create the design and knowledge of pattern and shape. <div>

<br />
Firstly, some of our windows are covered with stained glass replica's, created by the 3/4 students. If you are wondering how these bright and colourful artworks were created, here are the details. You may like to create one at home!<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgx_sb4mdRcSqpJc9OG5mRPZJJfvNPThdrxw_SAPo2-imUs4RggZwgDE3Rz2srprYxSRu5dU0Mkh9kXuQzglsz4Yfx8ziFC5_6vbRc3sJMFmVG6VS-rM8wn5uUy0V-JLDOUEGisPvxuE3p7/s1600/IMG_3337+2.JPG" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="240" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgx_sb4mdRcSqpJc9OG5mRPZJJfvNPThdrxw_SAPo2-imUs4RggZwgDE3Rz2srprYxSRu5dU0Mkh9kXuQzglsz4Yfx8ziFC5_6vbRc3sJMFmVG6VS-rM8wn5uUy0V-JLDOUEGisPvxuE3p7/s320/IMG_3337+2.JPG" width="320" /></a></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<u>Materials:</u> Cardboard, grey lead pencil, wool/ yarn, PVA glue and small paint brush, Aluminum foil, masking tape and Sharpie coloured permanent markers. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<u>Instructions:</u> </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
1. Use a piece of solid cardboard (eg. from a cardboard box) as your canvas. Draw shapes and differing lines on your canvas, making sure they are large and cover the space (No large blank areas! We want to make our art look interesting!)</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
2. Choose a shape or line to start on first. Trace the shape/ line with a string of wool.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
3. Cut the wool when you have the right measurement of the shape/ line.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
4. With PVA glue and a fine paint brush, paint glue over the shape/ line.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
5. Stick wool/ yarn onto the outline of shape or line, and repeat until all lines and shapes are covered in wool/ yarn. </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
6. Let dry!</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
7. Cover canvas with Aluminum foil making sure you press down on the front of your canvas so that the wool creates a dint in the foil (but does not break it!). </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
8. Use masking tape to stick the foil to the back of the canvas.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
9. Start colouring all the sections that have been created on your canvas with colourful Sharpies.</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;">
Another bright sight that can be seen when viewing the outside of our art room (even from a distance) is the painted wall under our windows. This was painted as a canvas for students in the upper levels to paint with brightly coloured flowers in Spring. </div>

And... Spring has finally arrived!! So with some lovely sunny days soon approaching, we will have our art smocks on and will be busily creating some outside art! The kids have been looking forward to this and I can't wait to see what it will look like when completed! </div>

<br />
We spent time in class sharing our knowledge, thoughts and feelings about the meaning of this significant day in Australia's history. Students looked at a range of artworks which had been created as memories, reactions and to pay tribute to our fallen soldiers.<br />
<br />
They then created their own artworks from these inspirations to pay respect and show their acknowledgement of this important time in history.<br />
<br />

Prep and Grade One </div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Students listened to the story "Lest we forget". They used oil pastels to create the landscape background. Poppies were created using kinder squares, scissors and glue showing their developing fine motor skills.</div>

<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
Grade 5/6</div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
The well recognised Australian artist Sidney Nolan and his 'Gallipoli" collection, depicting paintings of soldiers from the World War One landing were explored during Visual Art class. Grade 5 and 6 students created their own portrait paintings inspired by this iconic artist, adding their own personal feelings and thoughts of how they portrayed a soldier of this time to be. </div>

Thanks for taking the time to check out my new blogging venture!<br />
My aim is to show parents, colleagues, students, friends and family, some of the fabulous work that is coming out of my Artroom!<br />
<br />
I am hoping to keep this blog up to date with art lessons, inquiry and learning experiences, as well as group projects and events the students are involved in.<br />
<br />
Although we have had a cold and wet start to Term Three.. exiting things are in store for the second half of the year! This term in Visual Arts we have a whole school learning focus on "Australia" and will be developing and producing artworks in relation to this theme. So watch this space in the coming weeks!<br />
<br />
We have already created some amazing artwork this year, developing skills and increasing knowledge through a range of projects. I will be posting some of these works very soon for you all to see! So stay tuned for future installments :) Anonymoushttp://www.blogger.com/profile/17041324421580373476noreply@blogger.com0
