Chavda's Pop Art Self Portrait

Reflecting on my Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein themed portrait


1. Are you pleased with your Andy Warhol and Roy Lichtenstein themed portrait? why / why not?
I don’t really like one of my dyed pictures because it is not really that good.


2. What did you find easy when you created your Pop Art portrait?
I found tracing over the top of my picture difficult.


3. What part did you find tricky when you were creating your portrait? -think about tracing round your face, outlining your face using a black marker pen, dabbing areas using the dye, dying the background, dotting your areas, colouring block areas and lettering.

I found dying my background tricky because I had to dye within the lines.



4. Who / What helped you when you were creating your Pop Art portrait?

It was great having two copies of my self portrait so that if I made a mistake I would be able to use my second copy.


5. What would you do differently next time? Think about: tracing around your face, features on your face, dabbing the dye colours, colour choice, photograph, time management skills, dotting your paper, colouring in block areas, lettering.

By not going over the lines when I would dye segments of my self portrait.


6. What frustrated you when you created your Andy Warhol  and Roy Lichtenstein themed art work?
Trying to keep the dots even in shape and size when I did my Roy Lichtenstein portrait.  This is my self portrait on my Andy Warhol and my Roy Lichtenstein art work.

The Haunted House Narrative By Alex

“Eeek! was that bonnie?”
“I think so” Jacob said. Mannnnn we shouldn’t have gone after his “stupid” sister. It was her own fault that she broke the game and she got sucked into it. Jacob kept up the pace and said “ My parents are going to kill me if she doesn’t come back” and added “Personally I couldn’t care less.”


Ahhhh! screamed Ashley regretting every moment she played the game and getting angry at it. It was actually her fault that they had all fallen in the game and she knew it. She hated herself for being such a sore loser. Suddenly she heard Chica’s creepy laugh and knew she was onto her. She screamed out “Jacob!, Max help me!”.

Jacob immediately started to run towards the voice with me right behind him. When we got there Chica was almost upon her so I grabbed a pole and  whacked chica straight in the kisser. So her stupid robot head went flying off and stuck in a wall. While Jacob reunited with his sister I went and pulled Chica’s head out the wall and squashed it with the pole. “So” I said to Ashley who was still looking cautiously at the severed head “Still feel angry at the game or your self?”

Five minutes later when we were making a plan to escape the chica body suddenly stood up and walk towards us then…… it fell down. “Bwha ha ha ha ha!” we all laughed at the pathetic try from the robot, when we finally stopped laughing I said “This is night 2 right?” “Yep” so that means no Freddy, no foxy, only Bonnie and good al’ chica over there. “Hahahahahahahahaha”.

Boossshhhhh! booooommmm! bannnggg!  “Ummmm…..... who made that noise?”as we all slowly turned around, the Bonnie threw chunks of the wall and squashed them.

The children or their bodies were never found so the police gave up and till this very day their ghosts roam the halls of Five Nights At Freddy’s.

Angari's KWL Chart on Tuataras


Today in LS1 we were put in our reading groups. We had to make a KWL. K stands for what I know,the W stands for what I want to learn and the L stands for what I learnt. We had to talk about our subject which is Tuataras. First we had to write what we know about Tuataras, then without looking at our books we had to write questions about what we want to know. Then we read our books and typed what we learnt. I had lots of fun doing this with my reading groups.

Creating Self Portraits based on the work of Andy Warhol

During the last three weeks we have been learning about the Pop Art era. We have been learning to create self portraits based on the artist Andy Warhol. We had our photographs taken and then we traced over our photographs. After this we traced over our pencil lines using a vivid. Then Miss Paton photocopied our portraits so we could have four masters to use. Two for the Andy Warhol artwork and two for Roy Lichtenstein. We are looking forward to mounting our artworks.

Comparing the Wolves in the Three Little Pigs and Little Red Riding Hood By Mele

This is my Venn diagram I made. I had to compare the two wolves in the stories of the Three Little Pigs and Little Red Riding Hood. In the middle of the Venn diagram I had to write the the same things that the wolves are in the story. A Venn diagram is comparing the differences and the similarities of two things, places, characters, etc.

My Prototech Maths Results

Today I went onto the Prototech website to practise my basic facts. I did very well on these areas: Groupings within 5, Groupings within 10, Groupings with five and doubles to ten. I need to work on: Subtraction to five and Addition to five. I got confused with the + and - signs.

My Xtra Maths Result



Today I sat the Xtra Maths Test. I found out that I answered the 11, 12, 13, 14, takeaway facts very well. I need to work answering the questions faster within three seconds. I also need to think about the question so I am not typing in the wrong answer.
