My Notans Calendar Art!

Hi everyone, if the last few weeks we have been making something called a "Notan" they are REALLY cool! Its basically when you cut something out and flip it over, you will also have another coloured piece of paper. Our class watched few videos and looked at some examples, then we practised on a blank page in our art books, I chose to do my name! Same with a bunch of other people, after we practised a BUNCH and tried a lot of things, we finally started to make it happen. Also a few days before we did our names and all that we also did another good Notan, here is the one I did, 

I thought this one was really good! 

Here is my name one,

Chris helped me with some of the cutting, the thing was, I had to try and make this look as good as I wanted it to, because we were gonna be able to choose which No Tan we would put on our calendar art because we are doing No Tans for our calendar art! I chose my name because it took the longest and it was my best one I think, it was a hard choice though. I hope you enjoy my Not Tans because I worked really hard on them, maybe you could try?

My Animation W/Scarlett From Kotuku

Hi Everyone! Today we did a bit of a collaboration with Kotuku. We had quite a lot of fun, our class was supposed to show the younger ones in Kotuku what we can do with the power of "Remove.BG" We had watched a little animated movie about this girl on magic bubbles and then we had to ask the little ones if they wanted to be on top or inside the bubble, we all had one kid to look after and they were allowed to choose, Scarlett was my partner, she chose that she wanted to be on the beach in this, so I did that. Scarlett and I took pictures and made this animation come together, soon it was time for me to go back into my class, so I carried on a little on the animation! Now it is fully done, pause on slide number "87" to see the last slide. If its too fast you can make it slower. Hope you enjoy my animation! Stay safe from Covid and remember, the best things are free like to be happy! 

Our SECOND Egg-speriment

Hi everyone! Yesterday on Thursday, we went and tried again. Remember the last "Egg-speriment"? and how we still had another week? Well, this is our second time. We left the eggs in the glass jars for six whole days. This time we tried three eggs instead of two. The egg shells dissolved as we thought. We got two meter rulers and a spare empty Tote Tray to bounce the eggs in. Sadly there was only videos and the videos won't work, but one of the eggs was like it would never splat, we tried up to about sixty or sixty five centimetres until it broke, it was one of the white vinegar ones. We did it for the school challenge if you cant remember and Mrs King set the challenge. If you are from another school maybe you could do the challenge or you could do it for fun at home with your family members!

Our Fun Egg-speriment!

 Hi everyone! Last week we had an announcement that our class challenge was to bounce a raw egg, our principal gave us a tiny hint, "It might take some time"  That was the hint. Mrs Hickford asked us if anyone knows a way we could try. Some people said sugar water and soup, others said vinegar in a glass jar. We tried the vinegar one, we got two eggs, and two different types of vinegar. We put Malt Vinegar in one glass, then we put White vinegar in the other. We put the eggs in and waited a few days. Here are some pictures,

 

We had so much fun! A few days later we took out the eggs and felt them, they were squishy and you could kinda see the yolk, then we talked how it felt and we rubbed the dissolved shell off of the egg, we then got told to go outside, but I stayed close to Mrs Hickford and she started bouncing one of the eggs on the table then dropped it on the ground and... IT EXPLODED!!! Eww! Mr Abbott was outside so I told him about it and then a lot of kids in my class came inside and saw the yucky disaster on the floor. Then we cleaned most of it and went outside onto the concrete, because that's where we had to bounce it. We got a meter ruler and put an ice cream container there, first we dropped it from 10 center meters, and it bounced, then we tried 20 center meters but it didn't make it. At least we still had a few days, but today we got told we still have another week to try! Keep safe everyone! Maybe you could try bouncing a raw egg?
