Clay Cars On Rocks Road



Rocks Road was very busy, quirky clay cars were traveling in both directions.
A horn tooted and cars began to chug past. Engines revved and accelerated
as the cars began to speed along. Horns were blaring a warning, some cars
sounded like train engines, some whizzed along while others chugged and
cruised slowly. There was even an aeroplane taxiing along the road. All was
going smoothly until one ignored the dangers of texting, a skid and
catastrophe on Rocks Road.
A four car pile up!

Our teacher there was Easter. She showed us an Jane Evans piece of artwork then she showed us the Torres Strait Island exhibition . Then she showed us some war masks. We got into groups with a parent and using coloured  paper we made our own mask.

Clay Cars

A couple of days ago Room 10 made clay cars. It was very cold and damp. First we made it into a 3D rectangle. Next we made room for the wheels. Then we made the wheels. Then we got some slip and stuck it on. Slip is clay and water mixed together. Next we we made the roof.Then we got a straw and made the head lights.Then we wrapped them up in gladwrap.
