Year 2

Surprises in the seaweed

We started our sculpture project by researching and talking about fish. Then we each painted a large fish and displayed them in our classroom.

2N have been making sculptures. All of the class have been making pretty sculptures and we used metal and foam. We also used plastic containers and plastic top lids. I used plastic containers and I used something else - it was a plastic top lid. How I made it - I glued things together and stuck on coloured shapes. It ended up looking like a beautiful fish.      Keely
2N have been making fish for our sculpture project. For my fish I used a hot glue gun, plates, ideas and cups. For the eyes I used blue bottle tops and found objects.                                                    
If you want to learn how to make it follow the steps:
Step 1. Find two bowls and glue them together.
Step 2. Cut some fabric up and glue it on to the bowl.
Step 3. Get two blue bottle tops.
Step 4. Get 5 popsticks – blue, green, blue, green, blue then you just glue them onto your fish and then you are done.                                             Parker

I have been doing a fish sculpture. I will tell you how to make it. You need a hot glue gun. We had big pieces of foam and wire, pliers and found objects as well.       Toby

When we did our sculptures we used found objects such as foam, spoons, bottle tops, pop sticks, pot plant holders, gardening supplies, plastic containers, cups and much more! Paige and I made a squid out of wine bottles.

My first fish was a starter, it was pretty good. But not better than the squid. My starter fish was made out of a purple plate, garden pot holders, two bottle tops and pizza cutters.   Ashley
2N have been learning about sculptures this term. We are making sea creatures. These are some things that we could use: the hot glue gun, foam, cups, pop sticks, pieces of board, found objects, bottle tops, wire, plates, pot plant holders, gardening supplies, corks, pliers and lots more. It was very exciting.                         William
For my sculpture I got strings. Then I got the dingle dangle thing and put that on it and the teacher took a photo.     Mikayla
Hello people who are reading this. You are reading about my sculpture. I did an amazing fish. I used found objects like corks, pot plants holders, plastic containers, pieces of board, foam, spoons, bottle tops and pop sticks.     Hannah
The story of the fish and art day. We used modern things like  hot glue guns and found objects. I used a lot of them. It was very exciting.                         Xavier
2N and I made beautiful sculptures out of found objects such as foam, spoons, gardening supplies, pot plant holders, plastic containers, wire and pliers.
2N had to make fish. This is how we made them. First we had to find a body for the fish. Then we added things on. You were allowed to add a mouth, fins, eyes and gills. Finally we could do patterns on our fish!

For my fish I used a garden pot for the body. I wrapped it around with pretty dark blue fabric for the skin. I used a black bottle top for the eyes. I cut out a fin with scissors and orange foam. Then I cut out a tail from yellow foam. Then I put a pattern around the fish. I stuck it all together with a hot glue gun. I also used adults’ help.
It looks so cool!              Kashlyn

This term 2N have been doing fish sculptures using our imagination. It was very exciting. For my sculpture I needed: foam, corks, bottle lids, the hot glue gun, a plastic plate and three green strips on the tail. My fish had six fins, two big eyes, a huge pot plant holder and lots of wonderful colours. It was very imaginative.                Samuel
I think my sculpture is really cool. It is called Puffy Fishy. We had to use a hot glue gun to glue things together. We also used lots of thin wire. With the hot glue gun we had to have an adult to help us because it is very hot.

       This Is How I Put It Together
Get two white bowls ( Medium Size)
Hot glue gun the bowls together
Get a small plant pot that is plastic
Hot glue gun the pot to the end of the body to make the pot a tail
Get two bottles caps and stick them on top of the body to make eyes
And guess what? Now you are done!
