CREATIVITY

This week we've been stepping outside our comfort zones and trying new things.  We've had open minds and positive attitudes and we've found out that we've got 'hidden talents'.  

CHALK ART

Kurt Wenner is an artist who is creative with chalk. We watched these YouTube clips called 'Chalk Magic'.





We wanted to create our own 'Chalk Magic'. First we had to practice our drawing skills. We did enlargements, using grid lines to help us with accuracy and this helped a lot. Then we had to wait for some sunny days. We knew our 'Chalk Magic' would take a couple of days to complete and we didn't want rain washing it away before we'd finished.

We used masking tape to turn the two four square courts outside our classroom into drawing grids. We drew our pictures and then started colouring them in.

We not only created 'Chalk Magic', we also created colourful aliens (it's not a good ideas to smother yourself with sunblock when you're hands are covered in chalk dust!)
