My next task has arrived for everyone to see!! For today's task we had to use leaves, sticks, rocks and other outdoor equipment that's in our gardens or backyard, to make an insect or a scene. I chose to do a scene.
Here is my scene, Summer Delight. I came up with this name as it represents Summer with the flowers and bright green leaves, and when I think of Summer it fills me with a feeling of delight.
I used some dandelion flowers, not only as a flower in my scene but I also used one to represent the sun. I tried to use the big leaf like an umbrella. Using a stick and some grass I made a tree. Then the broken pieces of grass are meant to look like leaves fallen from the tree. I also added a Lego person at the last moment.
Do you think there is anything else I could have added?
Kia Ora Maddison,
ReplyDeleteIt’s Charlotte here, a commenter for the Manaiakalani Summer Learning Journey. I think that the summer scene you created from plants is amazing!
I think that it is amazing that you can make artwork this cool out of materials that you found outside, I wonder what other pieces of art you could make with things that you find lying around - I would love to see some if you make any!
What a great name for your scene, I love that you described what this name meant to you.

Kia Ora Charlotte,
DeleteThank you for your comments. I love creating art from many things. I have used shells before and sticks. For one of our school fundraisers we made fridge magnets from pistachio nut shells. Glued them in the shape of a flower then painted them. I really enjoyed making those.
It makes me feel really good that you liked my scene name. Summer is my favourite season. What is yours?
Have a great weekend
Maddison
Kia Ora Maddison,
DeleteSummer is my favourite season as well, because I love to go swimming, spend time at the beach, and eat lots of ice-cream. What do you like to do during summer?
WOW, those magnets that you made for your school fundraisers sound awesome! I used to make magnets for as Christmas presents when I was younger.

Hi Charlotte,
DeleteI like to spend time at the beach with my family in Summer. What sort of magnets did you used to make as presents?
Thanks

Afternoon Maddison,
ReplyDeleteI am impressed with your creativity. And how you improvised, imagining things like the flower representing the sun, and a leaf as an umbrella.
Your description of your scene was very creative too.
Wonder if there was anything in the garden that you could use to represent water, other than water.
Creative blogging, keep it up

Hi Mum,
DeleteAs you know I love making things. So I really enjoyed this activity. I could have used blue flower petals to represent water. I could have also used some of the dirt from our garden as the sand on the beach.
Thanks for your comment
