Corbans Art Visit

Today Room 9 and Room 8 visited the Corbans Art Centre as part of our Celebrations unit. It was a hands on session where we were able to produce a piece of art that contained three media. The inspiration for our works came from the Pacific art commonly known as Tapa. Joy began the session by showing us some very import tapa that belonged to her family. From there we went downstairs to the work shop and began the process.
We began by brainstorming ideas about our recent two week school holiday. From that we selected four aspects to tranfer into symbols which would then be included in our piece.
It was all over far too quickly. We had a great time and learnt alot by working throught the art process.
Room 9-Your Mission: Please post comments related to the following aspects
*what facts you learnt about Tapa
*what media we used to create our art. (There was three).
*things you enjoyed about the art.
*new learning about any aspect of the day.

PS Don't forget that Joy will be reading your comments so please let her know how much you learnt from her teaching today.
