Self Portrait

Last week Room 7 drew our self portraits. First we had a sketching lesson with Miss Donnell, learning to draw all the features on our face. After we finished our sketching, Miss Donnell blew our pictures up to A3 so we could trace around the outside of our features. Then we coloured our faces in using pastels. For some of us, it was the first time we used pastels! There was lots of colours on our hands at the end of it.

Miss Donnell helped us to trace around our hands and cut out our hands to glue onto the picture.

We think our self portraits look amazing. We love how different we all look.

Being a Bucket Filler

                                                            

As a part of the Life Education Trust visit, Room 7 has been learning about being a bucket filler. The purpose of “Bucket Filling” is to improve social & emotional learning and understand that our actions towards other can have consequences.. It is based on a concept where we each have an invisible bucket with the purpose of holding good thoughts and feelings about ourselves.

Room 7 have been talking about what our buckets look like, and we decided to draw our buckets. First we sketched a big bucket in our sketch books and Miss Donnell blew them up to A3 size. Then we traced around them with vivid and added some pompoms, glitter and pipe cleaners.

Delta I was very impressed at your creativity with your bucket. You did a great job following directions and tracing around the outside of your bucket. It was good to see you sharing the resources with other students and giving other students ideas about what they could put on their bucket. I really like the smiley face and the bow on your bucket.
