Getting Better at Inference.

I've really enjoyed learning about inference during reading with Mrs B because she taught us the 'It says, I say, and so therefore my inference is...' strategy. It helped me focus only on relevant ideas.

This week we have been doing art with Miss Dixon. We are painting volcanoes. We are learning about brush techniques and how to blend the paint properly. We are using these techniques to paint the volcanoes because our topic this year is 'I te Maunga ki te moana', which means from the mountain to the sea. We are using cold colours like blue, green, brown and purple. First, we made a draft and practiced the two painting techniques then we painted our big ones. Here is my art work. It looks like a mountain because I haven't painted the lava yet.
