3D shapes






The boys worked really hard to make their 3D shapes from match sticks. Have a look and see if you recognise any of the shapes!

2D shape art





Third Class have been busy creating lots of art using just 2D shapes

Making regular and irregular hexagons





We learned that a hexagon is a 2D shape with 6 sides. With regular hexagons all sides are equal. Can you spot the irregular and regular hexagons??

Christmas in Lanzarote by Dylan Martin

It was our last day in Lanzarote, we were staying down on the beach. We did snorkeling, banana boating, tubing, speed boating, diving and finally I was pulled home by a boat.
I was with my brother J.J, my sister Leah, Ma, Da, my Nanny, Granda, Uncle Leroy, my Aunties and my cousins. It was a great way to celebrate the last day in Lanzarote.

Wassily Kandinsky (1866-1944)












Wassily Kandinsky was a Russian artist. He was inspired by the work of Claude Monet. His style of art is called ABSTRACT art. Most of Kandinsky's work is inspired by geometric shapes such as circles, semi-circles, lines and angles. We took the Kandinsky painting 'Concentric Circles' and created our own pictures using crayons and paint. Have a look at all our paintings together and see how they look like a Kandinsky inspired abstract wall painting. Well done boys!!







More 2D shapes





Fun with 2D shapes






The boys have been busy making different patterns from 2D shapes.

The Ghostbusters by Aaron Smith


This is the start of a really cool Ghost Busters story by Aaron......
Once upon a time there was a brave boy named Aaron. He was brave because he kicked the Headless Horseman and Freddy Krouger, Jason and lots of ghosts around. He was the head of the Ghost Busters. Here are the names of the Ghost Busters, Scott, Dylan, Callum, Ben Adam, Brandon, Nathan, Dane, Shane and Cian. They were up to their biggest treat yet and the ghosts were Ms. Stafford, Andy and Mr. O' Leary. They were very smart because they work in a freaky school that wakes me up doing the a-roo-cha-cha............to be continued!
