Paragraph 1
This is a short piece of writing about art. When you are drawing you need to find ideas, otherwise you can end up with a scribble you are not proud of. When I draw I usually find a reference picture of what I would like to draw, but I change it into my own style. When drawing with a reference try to change the picture so it is more like your own.  One really helpful piece of advice I have had was to sketch out what my Ideas are really lightly and rough (this is so when you start building more muscle onto your character you have an idea on the pose, shape and identity of your character). If you post your art online please credit the person you referenced.






Paragraph 2
There are a lot of different types of art supplies like paint, pencils, fine liners, felts and so much more… but what is the difference other than the price? Well, while the price is the most obvious difference, a lot of supplies have various uses e.g. oil paints (these are more often used for painting on canvases or blending because they dry much slower, so it is easier to blend), while acrylics dry much faster, so it is a quicker way to layer paints, but much more aggravating (time consuming and annoying) in the blending process.


Paragraph 3

When we do art, the main thing people think about is colour. You could have just black, white and grey, or you might have pink, blue and purple, either way part of our brain might be thinking about this during our drawing process. Most colours look great together, but some can be too much like ̈ highlighter ̈  colours (these are the colours that you would usually find in a pack of highlighters). Many people say that ̈ these colours should not be used ̈ , because sometimes they can hurt your eyes. If you match them with more dull and pale colours then they just look like a small flare of bright colour, and can look very beautiful.


Thank you for reading my paragraphs on art, I hope you learnt something and enjoyed it.

Lilith

Once upon a time there was a small, bossy and naive girl who was extremely adventurous. This girl ́ s name was Lilith and she loved going on adventures or at least that is what she liked to call them, although all she would do was just run around her room or the backyard with her teddy bear...bob.
One day Lilith decided she wanted to go into the forest that branched off the back of her house so she got dressed for an adventure she put on her white t-shirt, blue overalls, socks and shoes... 10 minutes later Lilith skipped over to her older sister.¨Katie, Katie!̈  yelled Lilith ̈ What?!̈ grumbled Kate she already sounded fed up her eyes darted up ̈Why are you so dressed up?¨ ¨Can I go on an adventure in the woods?!̈  Lilith exclaimed Kate looked confused for a moment but then she got an idea ¨you ́re sure you want to go to the woods? If you really want to sure go for it.¨  (Kate was a teenager obsessed with her phone and Instagram and she had recently seen a prank people were doing on their younger siblings and she wanted to try it...)

Sleep Hygiene

WALT: understand what factors promote good sleep

Today we learnt about what factors help us to sleep well and what factors impede sleep. We made a table to show what we had found.

Habits & behaviour to promote sleep

Drink milk before bed
Read before bed
Draw before bed
Listen to soft music
Relax and do something calming
Have the right lit room
Have a regular schedule for sleeping
Leave door open to let heat in
Have a shower or bath before bed (warm/hot)

Habits & behaviour that hinder sleep

Drinking caffeine
Having a lot of light in your room
Using technology before bed
Full or empty stomach



I will now listen to soft music before bed to calm my thoughts.

I learnt that having a full/empty stomach can affect your sleep.
