Method:

1.     Construct a 3D shape using cardboard. This will be the body of your car.

2.      Next you tape two straws to the bottom of the car. That are about 3mm wider than the car.

3.      After that you poke a skewer through the straws. The skewers need to be longer then the straws so you can fit the wheels on.

4.      Push wheels on the end of the skewers and attach with a hot glue gun.

5.     Attach a small bit of the straw to the top of the car. Next you attach a balloon to the straw.

6.      Check there are no holes in the straw by blowing the balloon up and hold it by the end of the balloon so no air comes out if it comes out of the straw put on another layer of tape.

7.     Now you are for the race course!

Sun Art

First we drew the sun on a piece of card, then we drew the rays on the outside of the same piece of card. Following this we cut out the detail and stuck the sun on another piece of card. Then we painted them with a roller and pressed the stencil on to a piece of paper.

Geometry Art

First we drew three or four random straight lines. Next we used our compass to draw lots of assorted sized circles. When colouring, every line we went over we had to change the colour we were using.
