Snow Globe Posters - A.J & Y.Z







Today, We started our snow globe advertising posters for our Twilight Fair. We had to include where to find our stand, where the fair is, what time it starts and finishes and what we are selling. Our posters had to catch peoples attention, have BIG, Bold words and it had to be colourful. Here are four of our posters. Hope you like them!

For Room 9 Nelson Central - A.J

Thank you for your comment Room 9. We have now worked out how much they will cost. The small Snow globes will cost $3.00, and the large Snow globes will cost $4.00.we are almost finished them all. Hopefully, we will be finished in time for the fair on the 20th.We got our prices because we need to make $100.00. We calculated the difference between the selling price and the cost of the items, and how much profit we needed to make. We also thought that if we wanted to sell them to children we needed to have it in their pocket money range.

Making our Snowglobes by C.S.



Three weeks ago Room 21 made snowglobes for our school fair. First we had to collect some jam jars. Then we had to get some decorations for the snowglobes. We had to glue some rocks to the lid of the jar. After that we glued the characters ontop of the rocks. Then we added some bushes. Then just to finish it of we aded water, glycerin and gliter. Then we sealed it with silicone. We still have to decorate.

Toledo Artwork- AJ

With Mrs Greene, our Thursday teacher, We have been making a clay sculpture of the painting Toledo by El Greco, a Greek artist. We first made a clay ball and then a flat piece that looked like a pankake. We put the flat piece over the ball and that formed the shape of a hill. We then made the houses and we ended up with a little clay city. After we let it dry over the holidays, we got to paint it in green, blue and heaps of country colours. Here is what it turned out like.

Snowglobes AJ






Over the past few days,we have started to make snowglobes to sell for the fair.We started off by collecting glass jars with lids.We had to collect 60 jars.The next week,we talked about how much it would cost and the safety of using the glue guns. We started off gluing some rocks to the bottom of the base. Then,if we wanted,we could put some greenery in to make trees or bushes.Then we got little plastic figures to stick to the rocks.We had Santa, reindeer, Santa's sleigh, cherubs, small snowmen, big snowmen and dinosaurs. Next we are going to fill the snowglobes up with water and glitter and use sealent to seal it up. Then we are going to decorate the snowglobes with ribbons and paint. I bet we will have heaps of fun selling them and hopefully, we will make 100 dollars.

Botany Downs Monopoly SB























A few weeks ago we made games for our topic show me the money.I made a Botany Downs Monopoly with all the things in the school. (Well basically everything). I did the sets of building such as the office. The colours were the same ones for the proper Monopoly. I also did the prices. They are in the ones, tens and hundreds. I got the notes from my Monopoly at home. I also got the pieces(car,plane,cannon etc). I just brought the pot of gold, shoe, battleship and a old car. On the front there is a Ferrari California because on the proper Monopoly the is a car on the front. For the buildings I put in Auckland City, I put on a picture of the Monopoly man because its Monopoly. On the left hand side there is a arrow that stands for go. It uses one dice(of course).First one to get bankrupt loses.
