Going Back In Time

Today, while Moutere was visiting the Nelson Museum we took over their room and did a little dressing up and blue screening against their blue classroom wall. You can look forward to seeing more of us transported back in time. The photo behind Rachel is a painting of Nelson Harbour from long, long ago.

Jordan is by the old Nelson Post Office that was there before they pulled it down to build the new one.

These are Allanah's practice photos so she can stay one step ahead of her class when they all get a go at doing the blue screening for themselves.

I love your blue screening - it's such a neat thing to do. I particularly like the picture behind Rachel as I think that must have been what Nelson looked like when my ancestor arrived in Nelson on the Fifeshire - she was 14 years old. I'm enjoying reading about all the interesting history you are exploring.

Hi Bella

We missed you. We had a great time today at the museum and walking around town looking at the history that we can still see and at the old Bishop's School.

I was talking when the teacher was talking so I had to go and sit in the corner with a big pointy hat on with a 'D' on it. The 'D' stood for dunce or dummy. I didn't like that part cos everyone laughed at me.

WE will put up some photos tomorrow.

Get better

What wonderful work - loved the students being Blue Screened by that and it looked so professional! Great idea! Always important for the teacher to stay one step ahead of the students too. Always.

I really love the effect you have created with blue screening - your photos look very real. I have a year 3 and year 4 class in Howick, Auckland and we are also stepping back in time. Only just this week we dressed up and visited the Howick Historical Village which is a working museum set in the
1840's. My class will really enjoy visiting your blog.
