Popart

This term for kete we have been learning about art. We were asked to choose what we wanted to do for the term that we were interested in. I had chosen Pop art that was created by Andy Warhol. Pop art is the short term for 'Popular Art'. Andy Warhol used famous celebrities and famous products and drew them in new styles.

For Pop art we were asked to create a digital and paper copy of a name tag that looks like pop art. Here are my digital and paper copy of my name tags.

I honestly really like pop art because it is made to stand out and it also looks really cool. I really want to learn how to make the proportion right with the paper copy name tag. I would like to create the pop art that shows the different colours of a human being with the squares. I am really looking forward to creating more.

Skittles Experiment

Method:

1. 1/2 fill a petri dish with water

2. Carefully place 4 different coloured skittles evenly spaced around the outside of the petri dish.

Hypothesis: I think that the water will dilute the Skittles and the colouring will start to come towards the middle.

Scientific Reasoning: 
The skittles are made of sugar and food colouring. As the Sugar dissolves the food colouring moves over the water with sugar  until it cannot move any further because of the other colours

1.What questions arose in your mind as you did the activity?
How does this work?
Why do the skittles dilute from water?

2. what could you do to see if your ideas are correct?
 Test it out.


Conclusion:
The water diluted the skittles and the colour started coming out and spreading.

Homework Poem

This term for homework 7ld have been doing our homework for sustainability. One of the challenges were that we had to make a couplet about sustainability, for the task we had to make it a couplet and put it on a slideshow, then we had decorate it to make the standards of our rubric.

This whole slideshow took me about three days to complete and decorate. I am really proud of this because the couplet took me four hours and I did it by myself with no ones help. Normally I would need a lot of inspiration but this time I just needed to look at some words and I knew what to do.

So far I think I have completed the task very well and think that Whaea Mel does too. I have a little bit to fix up but then it will be complete. I hope you like my couplet and I hope to post more poems. tell me what you think of my slideshow in the comment and I will try to reply to your questions.
