Math Art: Snowflakes!

Math Art: Snowflakes!

This week in Te Kahu we had to do some Math Art which was creating a Snowflake. It was very challenging because we had to use compasses and I do not really know how to use them yet. It was really fun as well because we had to create our own pattern which was very fun because I got to be creative. I really love snowflakes as well because winter is one of my favorite seasons. The math behind this task was the lines of symmetry which was very helpful for my math. I would really like to do this task again for our Math. Feel free to comment on my Blog and I will try to reply to most of my comments. Thank you very much!

My Dot Art Preparations.

My Dot Art: Preparations

At the moment in Te Kahu, we are creating Dot Art and it is really fun. I have not yet completed it yet but I will be posting about it when I am done with it so you can see it. I have chosen to work on a dog because I love dogs very much. I chose to do all the abstract colors on my dog so the colors stand out and you can still see the shape of my dog. I am using a pencil for the fine dots and a cotton bud for all the outlines and inner colors. To create the picture we had to find a picture on Google and put it on a doc and into our learning folder so our teacher could print it off for us. Then we would get some A4 paper and trace over it on either the window for easier use or the table if it was very bold. I am really loving this art project and I would also love to do it again. I will put up a picture of the complete piece when it is done.

Wonderful Google Drawing

Wonderful Google Drawing 

In Te kahu we had to do a Google Drawing on a word that we loved. I chose Wonderful. I thought of this word and I thought 'Yes this is the word' and that's when I made a Google Drawing of the word. This task was very calming and fun and I love to do tasks like this because it takes my mind away to my own world while I work. One thing challenging about this task was making all the shapes and putting them into the right place. I would really love to do this task again because it was so much fun.
