Samuel's Artwork: Samuel In Dolgnwot
Today we have a special double image special of Samuel In Dolgnwot.
The first image sees Samuel using his somewhat futuristic (for the mid 1800s) gold digging truck.
The first Item on the left is the house cabin where Samuel lives when he is on the goldfields. The next item is the trailer that holds all the gold that is found and the other item picks up soil, analyzes and sorts it, drops the gold in the trailer and places the soil back on the ground.
If you look closely, the teacher has placed another tick in the bottom right orange square, which, just like yesterday, is suprising.
Why is it suprising? Well, lets take a look at part two of today's double image special.
This is the comment that year six teacher, Mrs. Brophy left on the page.
"You need to use some sentences to help make your entries make sense Samuel."
Maybe she just like the colours...
I suppose that in all fairness, the actual aim of the Gold Game was to make us write sustained pieces of writing on a particular topic, and whilst this didn't happen in my case (which is a good thing, we wouldn't have these lovely images if I had followed the task completely) I did still create some intriguing entries none-the-less.
The upshot of all this is that, starting tommorow, the pictures will have captions on them.
Clicking on the pictures will show larger versions, you can also find them on the photo gallery.
