The Starry Night was completed near the mental asylum of Saint-Remy, 13 months before Van Gogh’s death at the age of 37. Vincent’s mental instability is legend.
Van Gogh painted furiously and The Starry Night vibrates with rockets of burning yellow while planets gyrate like cartwheels. The hills quake and heave, yet the cosmic gold fireworks that swirl against the blue sky are somehow restful.
This painting is probably the most popular of Vincent’s works.

We are going to use diverse material to make our own Christmast Decoration.
We can use whatever we find at home, included: cards, cardboard, plastics, glitter, and so on.
Take a look at this page on the Internet. May be you can find some good ideas….

An Advent calendar is a special calendar which is used to count or celebrate the days of Advent in anticipation of Christmas.
The origin of the Advent Calendar can be traced back to the 19th century. Religious families made a chalk line for every day in December until Christmas Eve. The families also tacked little pictures, one for each day in December, on the wall.
Nosotros vamos a realizar un calendario de Adviento para nuestro aula. Cada alumno va a dibujar un número en un sobre. Tiene que ser un diseño original, estético, creativo y apetecible. Dentro de dicho sobre incluiremos un papel que tendrá un mensaje como regalo al resto de la clase. Luego montaremos entre todos esos sobres en una cartulina grande para colgarla de la pared del aula.
¡Manos a la obra!
This page is very interesting to study the qualities of colour. Make a scheme and study its vocabulary. Go for it!
These are very important elements used in advertising. Brands identify the product, anagrams are made up of letters related to the products and logos are designs that suggest what the product is.
Vamos a realizar un concurso de logos para nuestro blog Hello Plástica!. Entre todos buscaremos el que mejor se adapte. El ganador tendrá el orgullo de ser el logotipo de nuestro Blog de aula y por supuesto, tendrá un 10!!!! SUERTE Y A TRABAJAR.
