Jungle resort





Today Mr Ward taught us how to use Plaster of Paris to make mountains and rivers. He used scrunched up newspaper and chicken wire to make the base and staple it down. Then he used the plaster to mould over the top of it and smooth it down. He then showed us how to clean it up properly and make it look really good and realistic. This will be very useful as Sarah and I are going to use this in our resort model as we are making a waterfall. 






This week Mr Ward has been showing us different ways to build our resort, He has shown us how to ground the wood to make pools and ponds. I had a go and it was more difficult than i though it would be but i got the hang of it.
