Observational Drawings

Room 4 have been doing observational drawings.

We drew athlete's footwear.

We focused on getting the right shape and proportions.

OLYMPIC DRAMA

Today we did freeze frames of different Olympic Sports. Can you guess what we were doing?

NEW LAPTOPS

Room 4's computers have been changed to laptops.

What Room 4 children think about this:

I like our new laptops because you can take them to your desk and work.
Our laptops are great because it is easy to fit a small group around them.
I like having our laptops because they work faster than usual computers.
There are no cords to get in our way.
They are little which helps us fit our draft book next to our computers.
