Photography in Room 4

Welcome to Term 4!  With Market Day Art on the horizon, Room 4 will be focusing on Digital Photography.  The children will be learning about landscape, portrait and macro photography.  They are really enthusiastic about the topic and are already able to describe a photo using such terms as;
  1. Light source
  2. Main subject
  3. Foreground/background
  4. Room to move
  5. Horizons and Vantage Point
  6. Rule of Thirds
Ask them about these terms when looking at a photograph.  I,m sure they would love to share their new found knowledge.  You'll be blown away.

Last wee we had the great opportunity to visit Napier on a Photography Field Trip.  We visited wonderful spots like the Cheesery/Weavery at Hohepa, the Napier Fire Station, and Pania.  Here we heard the interesting crime story of how Pania was stolen 8 years ago and how she was tracked down to someones garden shed!

A huge thank you to all the parents who helped out with transport and supervised the children throughout the day.  We would not be able to head out on such wonderful trips without your support.

Here are some of the children s works over the past few days.  Enjoy!
