Wilkins Room



 
This week we have continued our investigations into our unit of inquiry, body and mind. We have been using mirrors to examine our facial features and then creating self-portraits. We can identify and draw many of our features.

  Me Regan. My nose. There’s my nose. Face. Cheek. I draw one cheek. Wow, there’s a face here – Regan


Ben. Draw Ben – Benjamin

Abi, it’s Abi – Abi

Look, tongue. Cheeks, yep – Mateo
 
We have then framed and painted and portraits to add to our body and mind gallery - make sure you come and check it out!

Could each family please send in a family photo for our future discussions and investigations. If it's easier to email it, please send to jcatt@staff.pac.edu.au and we will print it out for you.We also began our centre art piece with Mrs McCauley this week - don't forget to hunt around home for any orange bits and pieces to add to our collection to help decorate our rainbow.

Best wishes,

Nicole, Kelly, Karla and Jess
