Dick Frizzell...NZ Artist

In Room One we have been exploring Messages through Art. We have focused on the art of Dick Frizzell, a very talented NZ artist. We made a presentation using Googledocs...this was the first time we had done this! When we have been looking at our presentation we can see parts we could improve or develop for next time. These are our Next steps in learning, and we have quite good at identifying these this year. Have a look at our presentation, if your class has done something like this we would love to see it to help give us some more ideas!
