Inquiry Time in S7

All very quiet and focused on their tasks. Creating a poster about their favourite artist. This could be a musician, photographer, singer or a visual artist. Many children have chosen Banksy as an artist, while others are researching bands or singers. We have looked at the 1930's, 1960's and 1990's and now the class get to study their own era.
Many students enjoy listening to music while they are researching.
Nice to see the collaborative work going on in S7.
IPads and chrome books are popular research tools for students and
they are currently working on improving their referencing.
Thomas is looking at Graffiti Art.
Haydn has chosen Bob Marley as the person he wants to study and has found some interesting facts. 
Noah has studied Picasso, Michael is studying Ariana Grande and Missy is studying Banksy.
Isaiah is looking at a less well known group called Spiderbait,
although many of you will know the song 'Black Betty'
which was a chart topping
cover version of a 1930's song by a group called Lead Belly.
Bailey deep in thought.
Some of our earlier work in the term.
The 1930's was a popular era with the class and they really enjoyed the music of this time.
