Room 14's Totem Poles

I have interviewed Annabel Philips from Room 14 to ask her these questions about their totem poles displayed on the corner of room 14 on their windowsill.
LS: Why did you make the totem poles?
AP: We made them because Linda McIntyre designed them and then our
student teacher Ms Farmer wanted to make some poles, just like the ones by the jetty.
LS: How did you make them?
AP: First of all there was just a wooden pole, and then we painted pictures and put on the background colour. Then Mrs Wilson thought they would look good with tops, so we made some out of paper mache. We also outlined the pictures with vivid.
LS: Why were they outside on Wednesday, last term? We were interested to know why.
AP: Because they were being varnished and they were out there to dry.
LS: Will you use the totem poles for a project or role play?
AP: Probably not. They’re just art.
