A.10 Explore the cubism painting style, create your own Picasso inspired artwork

This week I decided to learn and draw some cubism artwork to start of I started looking at Picasso cubism art it was amazing seeing what a person can do with two hands a piece of paper and a pencil after that I started thinking about what I wanted to draw I settled on a colourful background with a vase of flowers I wanted it to be colourful with lots of different patterns I have to admit it was quite hard here is my finished Picasso inspired artwork.

The care value I showed was active thinking because I came up with this idea on my own.

The leadership trait I showed was resilience because I kept thinking and trying different patterns until they were perfect.

Librarian distionsion #2

This week at the library I went on duty by myself because Johanna was sick I started of by putting all the books away which was a bit of a pain because I usually have to only put half off the books away because Johanna does the other half after that I got to do the computer by myself so that was lots of fun overall I quite liked doing librarian by myself.

The care value I showed was respect because I put all the books away quickly instead of moaning about having to put all the books away by myself.

The leadership trait I showed was resilience because when I was putting all the books away I didn't stop until I was finished.

Careers Education C.V. Writing

In CAREERS EDUCATION we have been learning to write a skills based Curriculum Vitae.

A skills based C.V. focuses more on the skills that we have,  rather than our work history.

Here is a link to our online Modelling Book that shows the process we have followed.

Three things that I have learned about writing a Curriculum Vitae are:

1. That your C.V. has to have superb punctuation and everything needs to be spelt right because it can make the difference between you getting the job and not getting the job.

2.  Making it short and sweet.

3. I learnt that if you write down some of your personal interests it will make the person that is reading your C.V. want to know more about you.

Here is a link to my Skills based Curriculum Vitae.

C4. Participate in the 40-hour famine; raise a minimum of $40

For this home learning challenge I did it with Maddy we went out the week before we did it and got sponsors we raised $50.90. We decided to do no furniture for 40 hours which meant we had to sleep on the floor for two nights, Eat our meals on the floor. Here is a photo of our bed we slept in.

The care value I showed was respect because we learnt respect for people who live like this on a daily basis.

The leadership trait I showed was goal focused because even though we really really really wanted too sit on furniture we didn't.

At tech this week we started of by watching a video of the worlds greatest 3D printer designs it was amazing some people have already made houses with 3D printers we then went onto making nets for different shapes after that we went to Mandarin we keep learning about how to pronounce different hobbies in Mandarin. When we got back from Mandarin it was time for morning tea after morning tea we made dices on tinker-cad I was the first finished unexpectedly then we did a kahoot quiz it was lots of fun after that it was time to go back to school.

The care value I showed was excellence because in Mandarine I tried my hardest to pronounce everything to the best of my abilities.

The leadership trait I showed was active thinking because when the dice on thinker-cad was a bit tricky I thought of some different strategies to get over it.
