Myths and Legends

I have recently been learning about myths and legends. I had to make a folder on the activities that I did on 5 of the myths and legends that I had read.

My favourite myth and legend was A MERMAID AND A MAGIC COMB.

I had a choice one of of 15 activities to complete after I read each myth. Every myth I did I had to do a different activity.

These are the myths and legends that I read
1. The boy in the fire
2. The first murder
3. The Greeks go home
4. A mermaid and a magic comb
5. The monkey and the crocodile

Haundertwasser Art

This week we have been using pastels to do drawings of buildings that Hundertwasser designed.
Hundertwasser hated straight lines and always said ''straight lines is the devils tool''.
Hundertwaser always did colourful, bright buildings and loved using very shiny gold on the domes.
Using the pastals was very messy and I got quiet dirty but my picture turned out to be great.
