Decorating The Tree

 LI: To decorate the office tree.

Today we completed our christmas decorations. Our client Mr Johnston asked us to make new decorations for the tree in the office. Once we finished our designs we went to the office to decorate the tree for christmas.The christmas decorations represented the students that go to panmure bridge school. We were given our brief our what our christmas decoration needed to have for example  it needed to be 10 centimeters, 3D effects, and had to be related to your culture. Their were types of holidays that we could pick when we were making our design. They were Christmas, Hanukkah,Eid, And Diwali. The tree in the office looked very pleasant because all the decoration looked beautiful. I was very pleased with the end product and would like to do this again. The tree looked very attractive.

Illustrated Story

LI: To write a pourquoi (tell me why or how) story that paints a picture in the mind of the reader.



This week for writing we were learning about quoquoi stories. Quoquoi writing tells people how or why something works or does.Our challenge this week was to create a pourquoi story that we would illustrate and share with our junior classes. A pourquoi story tells us why something is the way it is. Our story tells why/how the snakes got it scales. This morning we shared our stories with Room 2 and Room 4, and they loved listening to them. I really enjoyed sharing our animation because I think our story was really intersting.

Design Technology Challenge

LI: To design and make a holiday decoration that fits the client brief.

The photos above show my end product or follow up from the design technology challenge. We started by unpacking what the design process was. Our client, Mr Johnston asked LS2 to make christmas decoration. The specification from Mr Johnston was for our decorations to be 10 centimeters, 3D effects, and to make a design from our culture.Then it was time to think of what type of holiday we would make our decorations in that represent us. They were Eid,Hanukkah,Christmas,Diwali. I picked christmas because I thought is was easier when I mixed my culture with the christmas holiday.Once we picked our holiday we started to draw our design on a piece of paper. After doing our design we started using felt for us to pratis of stichting skills. We used the running stitch and the blanket stitch. After we got good at it we started on our proper design. My first design was a turtle with a santa hat. I also added embellishments to my design so it could be more dazzling. I was very pleased with my design because I thought it was made to a very high standard and was made with a lot of effort put in. After that I made more design because I was pleased with my design. I made a flower and snowman and a cup of milk. I had to be creative with the colours because their wasn't enough felt for everybody.

Art Colouring Book : Step It up Challenge

Recreated image



The elements of art is one of the most important things you use when doing art. When I combine all the elements I create a very good picture, art, or painting.Using the elements  of art included lines,shape,form,texture,colour,space, and value. 

Lines a used of some hard piece of surface. Their are many types of lines such as, wavy lines,straight lines, and many more. When the lines are put together they form a shape. Shapes come in all types of sizes, they can also be geometric when lines are put together. When shape are used they create type of forms.
 
Shapes have many different types of form when used.Space is the amount of height and width you have between your art,painting, or picture.Space is one of the most things you need when you are doing art.Colours are one of the most expressive element of art. It is also used when you are showing space. Value is the lightness or darkness of a colour. When a dark or light colour is together they create contrast with form texture. Texture is how the art feels. It could be rough,soft,smooth.

Art is all about the elements. In one of my art I used some of the elements of art. Some of the elements of art I used was space,line,shapes. Using these elements really helped me with my art, for example one of my art was a bunch of lines together forming a shape. I used lines,shapes,space, to create my painting.

Combining the elements of art is one of the most important part when doing art. Such as having the right tools, paper, and a right place you could do it in. Even when you paint lines it still includes the elements of art. Showing the elements could really bring detail and could also express the story behind it. 

This morning we tried one of this year’s Kick Start Summer Learning Journey activities. The purpose of this task was to experiment with colours by mixing colours from the original palette with pop colours. This allowed us to recolours famous painting or images of landmarks around the world.For this task we were asked to make a T.E.E.L paragraph about the step it up challenge we have been doing. T.E.E.L stands for topic starter,eleaborate,evidence, and linking back to the topic starter
 

Tech Reflection - Science With Mrs Sharma

 This week for tech was our last week with Mrs sharma for science. This week's topic was about plants and food makers.First we learnt about plants, then we were given five questions about plants to answer then we would share our thinking. After sharing our thinking we watched a video more about plants and we were also asked to take note. One fun fact about plants is that plants are useful to animals because they are also part of the food chain. Next we were tasked to find ten leafs and write the size,texture,colour,thickness, and the patterent of the leaf. I enjoyed finding more about plants and what they do for a living.

Respecting Teachers - CARE Awards - Gold Respect

 For this task I was asked to create a video about how you could respect teachers. When respecting teachers  you could do what they tell you to do the first time, don't disrespect them, and don't talk back to the teacher when they are talking to you and listen to the teachers when they are talking to the class. What I enjoyed from this task was making a video about how you could respect teacher. I liked this because I could show and tell other kids about showing respect to their teachers and help them being a better student.

Thank You Letter - Gold Respect - C.A.R.E. Awards

LI: To create a thank you letter to a staff member os teacher.  

Today we were continuing our C.A.R.E for this block. For this task I completed one of my Gold Respect work. I did this task showing a thank you letter for one of the teacher, of staff member. I wrote about Mrs Linda and how she has done everything for this class and also me. I don’t know how to repay for all the patience and kindness you have given this class, but all I can say is that you are one of the most spectacular teacher aids I have ever learnt with, because even when you’re angry you don’t show it and that’s what I like about you.
