Oh no! What do I have to wear?

This week has been a very busy first week back with all the students now started with their inquiry, wearable arts and speeches.

Speeches are well underway with students all having chosen a topic, researched information and started the difficult task of writing it.

Our big Inquiry unit is underway with students using their laptop time to create a title page and finding photos to inspire costume ideas.

Wearable arts themes have been chosen and masks/costumes are now starting to be designed. To help the students think about how costumes could be made and how materials can be attached or linked to each other we held a costume challenge. The students had to work together in groups to create a wearable artwork out of the materials provided. See the results below:
