Summer Learning Journey – Let’s Get Funky – Activity 2

What an exciting afternoon I’ve had.  First I learnt how to create a song.  You can check this out on my previous post here then for this activity I learnt how to create a video using scratch. I had to design a pattern first then a background.  Using code I added some special effects.

Check out my video:

These 2 activities were so much fun and I learnt two new skills.  I look forward to using these again.

Blog you next time.

Summer Learning Journey – Let’s Get Funky – Activity 1

Hello, how are you enjoying my Summer Learning Journey? I am having lots of fun and learning heaps of new things.

Today’s activity involves me making my own song using Sumotones. This was so much fun.  I used Sumotones for the first time and had to choose 3 instruments to create my song with.  I chose drums, acoustic guitar and a round synth bass keyboard.

Then under each instrument there was prerecorded segments.  I then played around and chose the ones I thought sounded good together and made this song. Have a listen.

 

Have you used Sumotunes before?

See you next time.

 

Summer Learning Journey – Art for Arts Sake – Activity 2

Back for some more silhouette art work.  This time I have to create an art piece using one of the previous silhouettes and duplicating, flipping and using different colours and patterns.

I had lots of fun playing around with this creation.

See you on the next blog.

Summer Learning Journey – Art for Arts Sake – Activity 1

Welcome back to my blog.  For this post I had to learn about silhouette drawings.  Using google draw I had to take a photo of a family member with their side profile and draw around it and fill it in black.  Here is my attempt. Siluets were highly popular between 1790 and 1840.
