Task Task Task Task Introduction This term we have been learning about some of the art principles - contrast, emphasis, repetition and pattern. Artists use these principles as tools/tricks to organise the elements of art within a work of art. Focus Here is a recap of the principles we have covered this term: CONTRAST is the arrangement of opposite elements: light vs dark, rough vs smooth, large vs small. It’s often shown in by using opposite elements. It’s used to create visual interest and drama in a piece of art. EMPHASIS is the part of the design that catches the viewer's attention. Usually the artist will make one area stand out by contrasting it with other areas. The area could be different in size, colour, texture, shape, etc. REPETITION refers to one object or shape repeated.

Introduction We are now starting a mini unit on fitness! We will be demonstrating ways to stay fit at home and will be setting fitness goals and aim to achieve them over the upcoming weeks! Firstly, as always, we will warm up our bodies to get us ready for action! Click me to start a high intensity workout!

AND/OR

Introduction That’s right, you read correctly, we’re going to be 3D printing! In order to print, you’ll need to complete the Country Token Worksheet first. In your classes, you are researching a country. In STEM, you will get to design and 3D print a token that best represents your country! Click here for the Country Token Worksheet. This worksheet, in addition to the 3D Printed Design, will be your STEM assessment this term. You will have until the end of Term 3 to complete this. Each week I will upload a link to Country Token Worksheet, as well as next week’s designing lesson.

Introduction Of course, not all families have a Mum and a Dad, but let's read a story about parents and what they do for work. See if you can work out the sign for Mum and Dad. Story about what parents do for work. Some occupations. Now watch my video and I will teach you the signs of other family members. Family Members.

Learn and practise the family member signs with your family: Mum, Dad, sister, brother, baby, aunt, uncle, cousin, grandmother, grandfather. Watch this video and check your signs. Now do this Quiz.

PATTERN is a combination of elements or shapes being repeated.

Explore This week you will be completing an assessment task to show all the great learning you have been doing in art. To show your knowledge of the four principles (contrast, emphasis, repetition and pattern) you will be creating a PowerPoint presentation. Watch this video! Click on this link. Select File / Download / Microsoft PowerPoint. Then select Enable Editing and File / Save As ‘your name’ onto your desktop. Edit the boring template to include your amazing knowledge and ideas! Things you must include (these are set out in the template):

Front cover page (name, grade, title).

A slide for each principle; contrast, emphasis, repetition and pattern.

For each of those slides you must include a definition (in your own words to the best of your ability) and artwork by famous artists that show/demonstrate the art principle. Please name the artist and the artwork.

Next, select one or more principles of art and illustrate the art term to visually show what the term means. It can just be a simple drawing. Take a photo and upload/insert to a slide.

Finally, complete a 3, 2, 1 reflection on your final slide:

- 3 things I have learned… - 2 things I found challenging… - 1 BIG question I still have…

Main Activity: Fitness Assessment This activity is an Assessment Task that will take 3 weeks to complete. You are going to work through a PowerPoint and by the end of week 9 you will upload it onto Microsoft Teams. This Assessment Task is all about goal setting, creating and working through a plan to achieve your goal. Make sure you download your own copy of the FITNESS ASSESSMENT Template. Week 1 you will need to complete up to Slide 3 of the PowerPoint. Slide 1 – Insert your Name and Grade. Slide 2 – Make a fitness goal. Make sure it is something you are going to have fun doing. If you can’t think of something here are some ideas:

Skipping 100 times in 1 minute.

Doing a certain amount of push ups in 1 minute.

Being able to do a handstand.

Being able to do the splits.

Holding a plank for 3 minutes.

If you think of another fitness goal, work with it, these are here for anyone who can’t think of something. Slide 3 – Create a plan to help you achieve your fitness goal. e.g.
