Watercolour Painting

The Art teacher was working with us on Friday and showed us some nice techniques for watercolour.  We had to remember background, middleground and foreground.  The background was lighter colours, using a colour wash.  The foreground is supposed to be stronger colour – we did this later with paint when the background was dry.  We are hoping to use these techniques to do some art work in the style of Shaun Tan.  We will post some pictures up soon of these!

Beach Photostory

Sorry for the late posting – the technology has been getting the better of me!  The class have produced some brilliant photostories last term to show all of their learning about the beach.  I wanted to up-load one to teacherstube and then embed it into the blog.  It took ages to up-load and then I found out it couldn’t embed into the Glow Blog anyway!

So, here is the link to it – I think it is pretty good.
