How to avoid scammers across the internet

   WALT tell the difference between fake and real emails ie fishing
Internet Awesome
Today in cyber smart we have been learning on, how to detect if a site if real or fake. To detect if a site is real or fake, read the URL and if it is changed then the site would probably be a scam asking for you information or if the site is not secure. Also check the English in the subject line if it has bead English then it would probably be fake. If you get a popup talking about a virus, on your computer or phone, they are the ones to always check on the subject line or bad spelling.
I think it was a good topic to work on and hope that we don't get scammed in the future
Have you ever come across a scammer?

Tessellation Art

                                             WALT: Crete a tessellation art by  M.C Escher
         Today in our class we made tessellation art by, repeating the same pattern over and over again                                                            and after, adding detail and colour!
      First We had to make a pattern on a piece of paper, then sticking it on the other side of the paper.
                  After making our cutout pattern, we would trace over the outline of our pattern onto a                                                                                piece of paper.
             After covering up the whole paper with our pattern, we would add colour and detail into it.
                                            After you have coloured it in, you should be finished.
              Something I could have done better was, to trace the outline of the pattern with vivid to                                                                                 make it stand out.
                                                                       

Charcoal Abstract Art

   

In our class, we have been drawing and designing charcoal art from google images. 

The picture I have drawn Is a a Raven with black flames coming out from his wings. 

The original artist that inspired me to draw this was Stephen K,

Link to the original artist Stephen K  

First I found an artist I liked, then copied the image on google by drawing it with pencil,

After that Copying it with charcoal and smudging it.

It was quite hard doing the flames at the back of the wings but I managed to do it in the end.

King Midas Animation

In our class we have been making animations about King Midas,and the golden touch. The Story was about King Midas being granted a wish but then goes horribly wrong when he asks for everything he touches becomes gold And so my animation is based on that story.

Camera Shots and Angles

                 
                                      Camera Shots and Angles
            WALT: Take different camera shots from different angles.
Today our class has been learning about, how to take different camera shots on different angles. 
         Kobe and I used our chromebooks to take photos of ourselves, In our slide we have inserted the image we have taken, on our cameras then after that, writing a purpose on what the picture is about, the camera shots we have taken were, close up, wide shot, mid shot, over the shoulder, worms eye view and birds eye view
Reflection: I enjoyed taking the photos, it was funny and hope to do more in the future,
One thing I could've done better was write, a better purpose or make them longer,  and maybe to take different angles.
In panning shot we didn't have time to take it but we have a explanation.

Mountain Drawing

 

Mountain  Art 

In our class we have been doing Art, and our main project was drawing mountains. 

First we had to watch a video to get an example on how to draw it.. 

I drew mine by sketching out the mountains, 

first with a pencil and by adding details to it. 

After that we had to get a piece of charcoal and draw the over the outline and smudge it inwards to give it a shadow effect. 

Then I added more detail to it with some charcoal to make it realistic. 

I smudged more charcoal on the inside of the mountain to make a shadow effect on the inside as well as on the outside.  

Then I got the result of this. 

Reflection: I thought this was cool making this art and hope to do more in the future. 

Charcoal Art

In Art we have been sketching tools, then smudging the outline of our drawing with charcoal.
First we would grab a tool of our choice then trace the outline of our tool, then after that we would add in all of the details from the tool, into our drawing. Then after tracing and adding all of the details in, we would sketch around the outline of the tool with charcoal then smudging it.
After smudging it you should get a result out like this...
Reflection: I thought it was fun to work on especially when I was using the charcoal.

No one could play it

A rumor of the Piano

A rumor of the Piano

There had been A rumor passing  around, school about a Mysterious Piano in a Forest, And if anyone played it they would be possessed for the rest of their life. 

A new student had joined the school called Jake, But noone has told him about the piano in the forest.. , The day had passed and After music class, Jake had made a friend Called Kai. 

As the sun shone into their eyes, Kai had explained to Jake, about the piano in the forest and how he was the owner of the piano. After Kai, telling Jake about the rumor.. Jake agreed to see the piano in the forest. But Kai had a little secret up his sleeve...

They had entered the forest after truding out of school and zoomed off the road. The sun was shining through all the tall trees, while birds were singing and butterflies dancing around the Piano.. 

As soon as the piano was in sight, Jake had rushed over to it, avoiding all the roots connected to trees and avoiding all the branches in the way. Jake had whipped out a pair of gloves out of his pocket, so he could play the piano without hurting his hands. Kai had finally caught up to Jake,

“Why do you have gloves on?” asked Kai, “It's to protect my hands from playing the piano. Kai

didn’t understand but Jake had already laid his finger on a note, nothing, the piano didn’t play. “What?” Jake panicked, He thought he had been possessed. Kai stumbled along to Jake passing through all the branches. Kai, had  gently pushed his finger on a note, Surprisingly the piano had bursted out with, the note he played. “Well since this is my Piano, It only shares its love to me”.

      Jake had slammed his hand on the piano, he was frustrated and confused. But before Jake could ask anything Kai had already started to play a song, At first Jake couldn't recognize what he was playing, until he looked back. It was the song that his teacher was playing in class Jake couldn’t believe his eyes, After Kai had finished playing, Jake pinched himself, then pushed down on a note on the piano, but the piano still didn’t play.  

    

        He couldn’t wait to tell everyone at school, But Kai denied his request, “No one would believe us” Kai Sighed. 

       But Jake didn’t accept it, and had an idea…

After music class Jake had a talk with the teacher, He told him about the Piano in the forest, and how he played a perfect piece. Jake, told his teacher that Kai plays the piano every night in the forest, So His teacher had came to a decision to visit Kai in the forest after school. 

Gabriel Moreno

In Term 1 Our class has been working on Gabriel Moreno Art Styles. 

Photos were taken of us standing on the side then tracing it on a peace of paper against a window.

Then after tracing it we had to give it details

and different patterns around it. 

Tracing it with vivid had made it stand out, Especially on the outside of our drawings. 

In our drawings we used different patterns with shapes outlining them. 

This art style has taught me how to use patterns and shapes

and have enjoyed working on it. 

Rugby League Training 2019

                                           WALT: Write a quality blog about Rugby League
At school we have been training, on how to play rugby league. Every Wednesday, two instructors will come in and help us train. We have been taught on how to pass and on how to catch, Today we played a game of touch, I was dummy half for two games and, had also subbed for two games. Over the past rugby league training's, we have been taught how to pass in a line while walking foward. The past Wednesday they have taught us how to do, truck and trailer, Its when it starts off with two people and you must walk in a square while passing it to people. So all the drills they have been teaching us have been all about passing and catching until we were ready to play against each other. in conclusion I have enjoyed rugby league, and really enjoyed the game of touch today, and maybe, but have maybe put more effort in playing. If you have played League or have any questions comment down below.
