Daffodil Art

This is my Daffodil Art that we made with Miss Paton. It was really fun and interesting because we have never made something like this before. The first step was going outside and we had to use crayons and make a pattern, we had to make 3 papers. Then we had to diy 1 paper yellow 3 times, 1 paper orange 3 times and 1 paper green 3 times. Then we had to cut the yellow paper 18 times because we had 6 petals on 1 daffodil. Then we had to make a trumpet witch was the orange one. We had to cut 3 thick lines and fold them into circles and we had to cut 1 cm lines on the top and fold them out. Then we had to get a green paper and fold them into a pipe and glue them on to the flower. Then we had to go outside again and use crayons to colour 3 other pieces of paper. Then you can pick any 3 diy colours and diy each paper 3 times. Then you have to make any size of vase. Then with your other 2 papers you have to make a board by making thin stripes then cut them out but first you need to measure how wide you want you boarder. The when you cut your stripes you need to make 3 cm pieces of paper and glue them on.

Most people assume that giraffes' long necks evolved to help them feed. If you have a long
neck, runs the argument, you can eat leaves on tall trees that your rivals can't reach.
