Character vignette - Long living

Our class made a piece of writing by looking at a picture and jot down all the things we noticed I went for a sad story called long living this is it.


Long living

I stood there. With my shoulder blades leaning the wire like laying a blanket on a washing line. I can see them, those big kids talking on the bridge, but they can’t see me. I just stayed where I was. They don’t care. A voice then spoke it sounded familiar. ‘You’re useless,’ then I knew that was just me. ‘I don’t care what anyone says to me, they’ll always be right,’ I mouthed to myself.

As I kept on cursing to myself, every once in awhile I felt the chance. The chance where I can stand up to my brother and all his friends. I could see the dead, wasteland-like leaves blow though the cold air and the skeletal trees lurching over the land. It was God. Until just when I was ready to stand up, it stopped. Like no-one cares about me. Every sudden move I make, I feel like it disturbs the whole environment.

While the brown leaves obscured my new sneakers, it reminded me of dad. Where is he when I need him. He told my older brother to look after me but he didn’t he chooses social more than his family.
I don’t want anything or anyone to put me down. I’m like a rabbit buried alive in its burrow. But then. I finally dig out from my imprisonment exposed to all my surroundings.
‘Who cares what they think of me!’ I said almost shouting it out but I didn’t want to carry it too far.

I’m going to go up to them and correct my brother. He needs to think about family not friends. ‘Who cares if I get embarrassed!’ I said. ‘I’m ready.’

My calendar art

Every year each class made different calendar art. This year in room 2 we made zentangle animals.
Zentangle got its name 'zen' because it's supposed to be a calm type of art.

Here's my owl I made;

Circular nonsense

Our maths project was all about learning the diagonals of a shape.
A diagonal is from one corner of a shape to another corner.
Here is all the diagonals of a pentagon: As you can see it looks like a five point star because there are five corners so a ten sided decagon will make a ten point star by connecting all the diagonals

You might be thinking what about a circle? A circle has infinite diagonals, but you can actually make any point star with a circle for example you can create a ten point star by doing this;

A circle is a 360o  angle so if you want a ten point star you have to;
Divide 360 by 10 = 36 now use the protractor and measure the angle of 36 degrees starting from a line drawn from the of the circle. Each time you measure 36 degrees draw a new line and then measure the degrees again.

This is my 18 point star some parts got messed up but it was pretty hard to make;

Starry Night REMIX!

Based off my dads favorite artwork - Starry Night and with the help from Mrs Cameron I was able to make one beautiful piece of art.
We planned this on our bubble catcher then copied it with pastel onto a plain black piece of paper.
After that we painted staying with the motion of the lines but not just paint we used a technique called double dipping. As you can see you dip a paint brush into any paint you like but instead of mixing it with a different colour you dip the paintbrush into any paint then dip it again into another type of paint and keep on painting!
When we finished the painting we added houses a black piece of paper and added small coloured pieces of paper mostly yellow for the lights. You're probably wondering, Llew doesn't look like you added paper to your artwork? What I did is sketch the houses for full detail with pilot pen and coloured it with blue pen and black pen as well as pencil on the edges.

This is my Starry Night REMIX
