Dot Art - Art and Cultural Evening

We have been creating dot arts for our art and cultural evening. We chose images to represent through dots. Our image had to be outlined because the colours would be confusing with the paint. We used cotton buds, sticks and even nails to make the dots. 

The New and Old Seven Wonders of the World

One of the tasks in our Literacy contract was to watch a clip about the Old Seven Wonders of the World and select one that interests us and research it. Then, we had to read an article about the New Seven Wonders of the World. In the article, there were three questions that we had to answer in our literacy book.

The New 7 Wonders of the World was a campaign started in 2000 to choose Wonders of the World from a selection of 200 existing monuments. The popularity poll was led by Canadian-Swiss Bernard Weber and organized by the New 7 Wonders Foundation based in Zurich, Switzerland, with winners announced on 7 July 2007 in Lisbon.
