Abstract Art

Digital Abstract Art

For this task, we had to take a picture of anything in the classroom or around the school that has some type of pattern of abstract presentation. I took a picture of some concrete dampened by water. We would take a picture of it and then use photo filters and effects to make it look interesting. We had to write whether our photo was interesting or not, I thought my art was interesting because this could be anything, this may be a picture of concrete but when looking at it it could be anything, even if it has barely any colour.

Art Preparation

Art for Our Cultural Celebration

In class, we are making art pieces to sell for our cultural celebration, this celebration is for celebrating the many cultures in our school. We will be selling food, having cultural performances, and art to sell. Our class is making art pieces out of dots we would have a black outline of any image you want, it needs an outline because it would be easier to see and make into an art piece on another paper. I chose the before and after of the "spinel gem" from  the steven universe movie that looks like this:

My outline was this:

Here is our class working on the art:

What makes a good Mathematician?

What makes a good Mathematician?

On our class seesaw, we were given tasks to do. 

There was a task to think of what it truly means to be a

good mathematician. After we had thought of what makes

a good mathematician, we used a blank template

brainstorming sheet made by our teacher where we put our

ideas. Here are my ideas:

 ||~Impossible Objects~||

In our class contract we had to make "Impossible objects." This task was to help us measure accurately and use compasses properly to make 

an equilateral triangle. For this task we need to keep attention to detail so we do not make a mistake. Shading the shape is key to show the effect of how the shape is impossible not normal.

Jacob The Great ( Sequel )

        Jacob the Great  (Sequel)
In class, we had to write a sequel paragraph for our stop here are the first and last sentences for some hints:

First: Jacob hated finishing things almost as much as he loved starting them.

Last: Now he knew the true purpose of life.

       🤑Jacob the Great  (Sequel)🤑

Jacob knew that his mum would refuse at first so before he asked again he tried walking dogs for money but that did not end well. After a lot of begging dad recommended paying half the money ($97.50) and he had to figure out the rest. Jacob agreed and he made a list of things he could do like mowing lawns, raking leaves, and many other boring chores.

Finally, it was time for space camp but after raising all that money for 10 weeks he lost interest and bought a Tablet instead. Will he ever finish something?
