For this last session before half term we were finishing our 3D boxes which we were then going to be presented for show and tell.This gave me time to complete the grass I had made inside my castle box That I had constructed. I had used the ruff side of a sponge (used to scrub dirt) to use as grass.I had also completed a model parrot that I had finished at home, I was well under way of completing my project. Unfortunately I didn't quite get round to completing the tissue papered bottle that was going to be my side tower in my castle.
It was then time for show and tell and our group had put on a lovely display of our final pieces. We had used some long dark green leafs to cover parts of our display so it was more hidden like a jungle. By using the leafs we also made it seem more adventurous to the eye. The project we had chosen was on birds. Grace a member of our group chose to do paper birds for her project where she had used some wire to create her tree that she put her paper birds on. Another member of our group had made a paper tree with her own cardboard birds she had made, She said "it took her 3 hours to try to work out how to make them" by the end they looked stunning. along side that she made a box that she put them in. Grace's friend for her project she had a box that she had made during Lucy's lesson in the wood tech room, where she used spray painted wire for her tree. She left the left side of her box missing where she had weaved wire together for the trees roots inside the box.

| Our groups final outcome for Show and Tell. A person from another table had her rectangular box with painted squares on the side. Which was the first thing that caught my eye as i was exploring the table they're multi colored squares reminded of Elma the elephant.They're theme seemed to be a soft child like box with Plasticine characters inside.They had used soft balls of Plasticine to use to represent their theme of playfulness. 
Another group cross the room had made a castle using different 3D resources to make it look as 3D as possible. They had put minefield warning signs up in parts where they wanted to label. They had also used wire to promote the theme of darkness and danger. Also making the outside walls grey and black to create that old fade in brick work.
    
This group had a box with Real Butterflies on the outside of the box along with a back covering for their box. They had delicately pinned the butterflies to their box using long pins, they said that before they applied the butterflies they went hunting for butterflies to add to their collection.
 
Another group made a pyramid made from paper, inside they had mini compartments where they kept their collective mini items. They did this by cutting square holes on each side of the pyramid. For each item they painted the side of the pyramid to fit the collective item they had chosen.
Now this group decided to expand their piece and they made a wired Cob-Web using wire and a glue to stick the joints together. Their theme was based on bugs and wildlife insects where they made small paintings of their bugs on card and they put along side their piece. They had even created a jungle of leaves.
This group (by looking at the photo) you can see that they were much more expandable with their box shape, they had made a diamond shaped inside to their box with four quarters. Their chose of color was very iron aged (silvery).
Similar to this group where for their box they had a silver covering with photographs stuck inside for presenting their theme by the image they had chosen they looked like they were becoming more textured like in their work.
This group had made a diamond shaped box with circle with iron and metal objects inside. They covered the box with newspaper which worked well in my opinion as it brought out the boxes shape. They also made a bottle top necklace or chain along side some etchings and colleges of their bottle/can theme in their sketch book.
 
Here are some other pictures I took of other peoples work in the studio.
