In the Messenger this week, there was an article on 3D Blender. You can see Zara Gibbens in front of an image she is turning into a 3D object. If you are keen to learn how to do this as well, then register for this workshop at the conference.

Studying Picasso? Get the students to create their own head.

I took a capture of the image to save on my desktop, otherwise it stays on the site.

This site is very interesting and has a lot of information for these topics. There is a bit of reading involved so not really a site for younger students.

This is a link to the site
e-asTTle is an online version of asTTle. It includes several new features in response to feedback from teachers and principals who have been using asTTle v4. For further information about e-asTTle, go to About e-asTTle or e-asTTle FAQ. Also have a look at the e-asTTle demo, which will provide a glimpse of what e-asTTle looks like and the available features.
The e-asTTle pilot for 2008 is now closed. Registrations for the 2009 e-asTTle pilot will open on 1 September 2008. The 2009 e-asTTle pilot will include reading, mathematics, writing, pānui, pāngarau and tuhituhi, as well as e-asTTle Numeracy Project Assessments.

I thought I would just let you know that the registrations for the conference are now open, and filling up fast.
There are only 136 places left and one workshop only has 4 place left.

Hurray do not leave it too long.
You can register just with the school name and then send the students names later if you wish. This way you will ensure your places.

I thought I would share this school site as they have put Art Coasta Habits of Mind in a nice and simple way with some suggestions for application in the classroom. Justclick on the book image to go to each one, once you are on the site.
