Art Week

During the last two weeks we have been doing ALOT of art. So far I have done jungle plants for the corridor, a 3D animal to go in the jungle, a close up of a part of Henri Rousseau's Hungry Lion painting, a copy of the Dream painting and a Paper Mache tiger. My favourite one was the close up. I did a close up of the jaguars' eye that was in the tree. We used acrylic paint and we did smooth brush strokes. What else do you think I could of done?

My Current Obsession

What I am really interested in right now is my new pet lamb Sean. He is only 5 weeks old and drinking 3 400mls bottles of milk a day. He is really cute and he has his own collar now and a soft place to sleep in. He lives in our chicken run with our seven free-range chickens Oprah, Girly, Big Mama, Little Mama, Peach Fuzz, Samosa and Sooty. I really like to go down and see him every day and give him a bottle. He is great company and he is never too busy for a play on the lawn. I really wish we could keep him forever but we are only looking after him for someone because his mother died, and after another 1 or 2 months he will go back to the farm to be used for wool. Can you guess where he sleeps? 

(Clue: He doesn't  like to sleep alone.)

Medieval Times Minecraft

On Minecraft Rm 12 built a medieval village. We all had different building we had to build and I built the Granary. The Granary was used by serfs to store grain, wheat and crops. Sometimes the wheat would be taken down to the watermill to be pressed and turned into flour. On Minecraft I used sandstone, spruce wood, oak stairs, oak planks and jungle wood slab. It is a 6 by 15 building and has lofts with chests on them filled with wheat, sugar cane and different types of seeds.
