A city is a large community with lots of people and places.



K Swan’s Puppets

K-Swan have been working really hard at making toys this term! Our favourite is the puppets we have made for the Art Exhibition! Check them out!

 



About K-Darling’s Puppets

 

We also made a Voki each. A Voki is kind of like a cartoon. We each got to make one that we liked. We recorded our voices on the microphone and added our voice to our cartoon Voki. Mrs Klose asked us to talk about the puppets we made for the Art Show. We said what our puppet was, and also what it has or is made of.

Plastic Bag Paratrooper

Check out this easy DIY toy 🙂

What you’ll need

  • Plastic shopping bag
  • Scissors
  • Pipe cleaners
  • Plastic action figure or doll

How to play

  1. Enlarge the handles of a plastic shopping bag by trimming the bag’s sides, front, and back as shown. Fold two pipe cleaners in half and loop each around a handle of the bag. Twist the ends of the pipe cleaners around the shoulders of a sturdy plastic action figure or doll.
  2. When your paratrooper’s ready to fly, fold the bag in half, grab the fold, and whip him up into the wild, blue yonder.

Fantasy Worlds at Belmore South

At our school, we have a theme for the class names each year. For example, last year was artists, and the year before was Famous Australians. In 2012, the theme is Fantasy Worlds from literature.

Mrs Klose’s kindergarten class will be ‘Wonderland’ (from ‘Alice in Wonderland’), and Miss Rhodes kindergarten class will be ‘Neverland’ (from ‘Peter Pan’).

Check out these amazing artworks of Fantasy Worlds by Jacek Yerka:



Henri Rousseau

Henri Rousseau is the artist our class is named after. We are refreshing our memories about his artworks so we can talk about him on our assembly in week 3. The links below are mostly children’s artworks in the same style as Henri Rousseau. We remember that his artworks often have

  • Leaves
  • Animals
  • Jungles
  • Colours
  • Green
  • Fruit

Today we made an amazing jigsaw mural of one of his tiger paintings that we stuck together. When it’s dry we want to decorate the picture frame and put our names on it, then we can take a photo to put up here. Mrs Klose is very proud of our hard work.

Henri Rousseau

Here is a PowerPoint presentation about our class artist, Henri Rousseau.

Want to make your own version? Look at the NGA Kids Jungle.

We will do a craft by tracing leaf shapes in oil pastel or wax crayon, doing a green paint wash, and finger-printing some orange ‘blobs’ for the fruits and flowers.

Here are some other ideas for art and craft about Henri Rousseau.

K Henri have made their own versions of Henri Rousseau’s jungle art!

Air Art

This week’s body system has been the respiratory system. It’s job is to breathe and absorb oxygen into our blood stream.

Since this system is all about air, here is an artwork about air, out ‘in the wild’!
