Mondrian Drafts

We have been looking at Piet Mondrian's abstract art style. We practiced creating our our Mondrian inspired art using only red, yellow, blue and white. We used black lines to outline each shape. We used squares and rectangles of differing sizes. We arranged our shapes to create an image that was balanced. This activity took longer to complete than we expected.

Tennis

This is our second tennis lesson with Lucian.  We practiced our forehand returns.  We enjoyed our lesson with Lucian.

Problem Solving and Building things

One of our tasks for EOTC Week was to set a building goal, work as a team to problem solve to achieve our building goals.  We also spent some time problem solving as individuals.  Miss Laxa set 4 tasks based on a television show from both the Philippines and USA.  One task was to balance a can on it's side by altering the water levels.  Other tasks include catching ping pong balls in cups, building a domino style track using CD cases and directing a balloon using only an air pump.

Swimming

We were lucky enough to receive professional swimming lessons by qualified swimming instructors.  We spent 2 weeks learning many swimming skills.  This will be followed up by another 2 weeks of lessons later in the year.
