Art Wall - Perfect Square






This art was inspired by the book
 Perfect Square by Michael Hall.

Each student had to make a perfect square from a coloured piece of paper.

Then they had to create a picture using every piece of their square.









The ideas are very creative and bright
against the black background.










The use of 3D made some pictures stand out from the page.







A number of teachers were so impressed with the artwork they placed Silver Cards on 3 of the students work.







         How awesome was that!







The book Perfect Square can be found in the Picture Book section under H for the authors surname Hall.










                      This was a fantastic display on show at
                             The Learning Hub Art Wall.

                                    Thanks Room 16.
