Faberge comes to Room 10


These beautiful mixed media pieces were inspired by the work of Peter Carl Faberge who created jewelled eggs between 1885 and 1917.

We created our eggs by using masking tape to leave white lines between our colours. The students were amazed when we took the tape off... and the best thing was that EVERYONE had a go with a new technique and a new challenge!


  



   

Putting on the masking tape... we had to press the tape onto our jumpers first 
so that it wasn't too sticky.



Painting between the masking tape.



Our pieces looked like this before we took off the tape.



Taking off the tape... we had to do this carefully 
so that we didn't tear the paper underneath.

We touched a human brain!



In Week 6 we met scientists who told us all about the most important part of our bodies... the brain. We even got the chance to touch a human brain! Can you tell which is the real brain from these photos? (One of them is plastic!)

Stringy Shapes


We made shapes with string by working together in groups. Circles were tricky... can you work out why?

Remembering our Dads and Grandads


On Friday we remembered our Dads and Grandads by making them special shirts for Father's Day...
