Term 2 - Theme of Collaboration and Art

For Term 2, the theme for Papakura Central School is collaboration and art.

Art in the New Zealand Curriculum, of course, includes drama, music and dance. Gentle hints for our Variety Performance show...

The students have been exploring digital art using google drawing, and traditional paint and paper techniques.

In this art class, the students were mixing the primary colours to make secondary colours. The students were also practicing colours in te reo as they were painting.

Here are some photos of the students doing traditional art.  This was part of a thing called 'process' art, where the finished product is less important than the experience of doing it.

The students will be sharing their digital art on their blogs very soon - watch this space.
