TRICK PHOTOS

 

We have been reading a book called " Tas and the Caves of Doom". In the book the person took photos of a background and then a photo of themselves and then added themselves into the background photo.

We had a go and this is the end result, we are quite clever!!!

The story was also a pick a path story, so we added our picture into the story line.

The story also had MUD MEN mentioned, we researched who they were and where they lived. Luke would like to be a mud man but Kate, Siena and Nivae would not like to be one.

Do you know where MUD MEN are from?

What does Mars look like?

You HAVE to go here to see 360° panoramas of Mars. It's awe inspiring—especially when you zoom in!
