My rain forest Artifact

                      My Rain Forest Artifact 

 Totara hub was learning about the Olympics. we sent an email to our colour group teacher saying which topic we would like to study I chose the Amazon rain forest because it is a big part of Rio ,Brazil where the 2016 Olympics took place. We collected lots of information from readings, books and a little help from they internet  to create a report. When we read the information we identified the key words and used the key words to write our own sentences. The report was the biggest challenge for me because it was hard to put the information into it so it was easy for the reader to enjoy and learn from .After I finished my long report about the Amazon rain forest I was ready to start my Artifact.

 My idea was to make a 3D rain forest in a box. I found a big card board box that I painted lime green on the outside walls. The teacher cut one side of the box so you could look through .Next I painted the bottom with a sponge to make a dirt effect and with a metallic blue painted a river running through the middle.
