Pastel Art work

W.A.L.T... Blending and shading using oil pastel media.

This week we did pastel art and our Teacher Mr. Packard sent us what we needed to do on Hapara, there was videos and links to show us how to do it. The whole class did the same work. 

We had to blend the pastel colours together to make it look more realistic we also had to draw a moon. After that we had to draw a silhouette. Some people did red or orange for the background but instead I decided to do blue.

Next time I do blending pastel art I will use real oil pastel not just normal pastel, so it makes the blending easier. 
How do you think that I could improve my work?

This google form is to get a idea of what food we are going to sell at our market day. please do the google form. the money that we make is going towards our end of year trip.... please do the form bellow.

Is it FAKE or REAL?

W.A.L.T... tell the difference between fake and real emails IE fishing.

I worked on a fake or real slide on Thursday in a cyber smart lesson with Donna Yates a teacher that works for the Manaiakalani program. Our work this Thursday was reading emails and seeing if they are fake or real.

We had to get into partners so my partner was Hinewai. On the slide show we worked on we did one slide each. We had to chose if the emails was fake or real then we had to write a description whether it was fake or real. After that we submitted it onto Hapara so that the teacher can look at it and mark it.

I thought that this activity was better than the one that we did in some of the other activity's we do on the other weeks. If I did this again I would make the descriptions a bit more interesting and maybe add some pictures.

Are you participating in the Manaiakalani program? If you do please comment and tell me what you are learning.
 

Tessellations

W.A.L.T... Do a Tessellation that is effective.

We were creating a piece of art that is tessellation I copied this pattern of a video. The video told us hoe to do a tessellation.

1. get a A5 piece of paper.
2. Scissors
3. Tape 
4. Pencil
5. Cut out a shape on the long side of the rectangle and tape it exactly on the side parallel to where you cut out the shape.
6. Do the same thing to the short side
7. Trace the shape that you did onto a piece of paper
8. then you are done

I enjoyed doing this because I new what to do. I did this in year 6 so it was easy for me to do.

Next time I think that I will make the patterns more consistent. and a little bit more bolder patterns

if you have ever done tessellations please comment

Maths Angles Types. Line. Point

W.A.L.T... Angle types calculate on a straight line and point.

I enjoyed doing this learning because I learnt what the names of all of the angles are. I also learned what degrees the angle are.

Next time I will explain all of the slides with the same amount of in not one with a lot and some with not much.

If you have done angles on a point or angles on a line?
please comment...

Maths Symmetry

W.A.L.T... Learn all of the different types of symmetry.

Every week we get a slide to finish we get set tasks on Hapara. This slide is this weeks maths work it is about symmetry.

The three types of symmetry that we learnt about was..,

1. Rotational Symmetry.
2. Order of Symmetry.
3. What a term of symmetry is. 
4. Order of symmetry.

I enjoyed doing this because it was interesting and I get to learn new things.

Next time I will make the descriptions longer and have an examples of the question in each slide. I will also make it more interesting.

Have you ever done symmetry in maths before?
If you have please comment...

Camera Shots and Angles

W.A.L.T... Use the different shots and angles.

We did this slide show with Donna Yates today. She is a worker from the Manaiakalani Cyber smart program. We do Cyber smart every week on Thursday.  I worked with Hinewai because we had to do this activity in groups of two. I was much easier than doing it alone because you had someone to take the photos and someone to act.

We are going to be doing movie making this term with an experienced man. So to help us prepare for that Donna came in and we did Camera shots and angles.

When we do this again I think that I will make the descriptions more precise and will make the pictures a bit more lighter...

Have you ever done this before?
