How to make your very own geometric art.

 I.A.L.T upload a blog post about our art and write about it.

For the past couple of weeks we have been working on some geometric art. The art below is not mine because I have not finished yet, here are the steps.

-First you chose the shape that you desire.

-Then you have to trace/draw the outline of your animal on an A4 or A3 piece of paper.

-Next you make all of the curved lines into edged straight lines with a ruler.

-After that you fill in the inside of the animal with different geometric shapes.

-Finally you can think/start filling in the shapes with patterns,paint,dye,colouring pencils or any other things you want!

When you are done your object/animal should look a little like this.

 

Have you ever done geometric art?

Commas

 W.A.L.T upload our writing task and write about it.

Last week we had to learn about commas. We did a couple of lessons about commas to learn about how to use them and where to put them. After those few little lessons, we got given a task to make either a poster or animation with a buddy or two to teach children where to use them. I choose to make an animation with Peyton and Anika here is our animation.

What I enjoyed was adding in Squidward because he looks funny.

What I did well was add in some humour to make it more interesting because normal is boring.

What I could improve on is adding more places that you can put commas in.

Do you like our animation?

Thought message

 I.A.L.T upload a  finished task from this week.

Today for our reading task, my group and I had to make a thought message about what it would be like if we were students from the future and time travelled back to the present. First we had to read the book. Next we went onto the google drawing and customised the background.Then we wrote a quick little fictional story/letter about what it is like in 2020. This is my message.

 

I enjoyed spelling the sports wrong on purpose because it looks funny.

What I did well was the background because I think the colours blend well.

I could improve on making it more descriptive.

What do you think it would be like in the future?

A.L.I.M drawing task

W.A.L.T upload a blog post of one of our learning tasks from this week.

This week at A.L.I.M learning time one of my tasks were drawing so this is what I did.

The first thing I did was draw the mountains. Next I drew the snow on the top and shaded it. After that I did the rocky stuff.Then I added in the clouds, river and grass.

Reflection:

What did I enjoy? 

I enjoyed shading and blending the snow because it was fun getting my fingers messy.

What did I find challenging?

What I found challenging was drawing all of the grass because my hand got sore from doing each little strand.

What should I draw next?

Kiwi Can

W.A.L.T upload a blog post about when we went to kiwi can

Today for our warm up we played stop, walk, clap and jump which was funny to watch when I was out.

Next we played Red light Green light (it's a bit like sneak up on granny).

Finally we did an activity which was, you got into a group of 3-4 and got given a piece of paper by kiwi can. My group did Bad choices and you had to write at least 20 bad choices to make.

What I enjoyed was playing stop, walk, clap and jump because it was really enjoyable.

What I found challenging was to think of heaps of bad choices.

Have you played one of these games before?

Description writing

W.A.L.T create a blog about our descriptive piece of writing we did today.

Today's writing task was to describe a person or object with our senses. The person I choose was Shrek.
-First we had to think about who we were going to write about.
-Next we had to describe what/ who we were writing about.
-Finally we put our name on it then handed it in.
Here is my writing:

What I think I did well was describe Shreks looks

I think I could improve on my handwriting 

I will use this in my writing when I am describing a character or person.

Do you have any feedback?

Matariki star art

W.A.L.T create a blog about the art we have been working on lately.

For the last week we have been working on our matariki art this is how we did it.
-First we got given one big star and one small star to trace on a piece of A3 paper.
-Next we had to draw some patterns and designs on our stars in pencil.
-Then we coloured in the designs (as you can see I left some of mine blank).
-After that we cut them out and stuck the on a A3 black piece of paper.
-Finally we cut the black piece of paper into a centimetre boarder.
Here is my star.

Reflection
I enjoyed colouring in the patterns on my star and getting it done.

Have you done matariki art yet?
