Andy Warhol (Pop Art)

  

                            

Since our theme this term is about Art, Team 5 had Art rotations but firstly we had to start from our home class. For Room 5, we learnt about Andy Warhol. Andy Warhol  (born name Andrew Warhola) was a famous artist who was born in 6th August 1928 (Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania)  and sadly died back in 22nd February 1987. Andy's parents were Slovakian immigrants. His father was a construction worker while his mother was an embroiderer. Around the age of 8, Andy contacted Chorea previously known as St. Vitus's Dance. Andy was sick in bed, while his mother (A very skilled artist) so she gave Andy a few lessons. 

Drawing soon became Warhol's favourite pastime in his childhood. He was also a fan of Avid of movies. Once he turned 9, his mother brought him a camera so he took photography as well. Andrew attended Holmes Elementary and took free art classes offered from Carnegie Institute (Now known as Carnegie Museum Of Art, Pittsburgh) . Around 1942, at the age of 14, Andy suffered a tragedy when sadly his father passed away from a Jaundiced liver. Andy got really upset to the point where he never attended his fathers funeral but just slowly sobbed underneath his bed for awhile to show how precious his father was towards him.

Warhol's father recognised Andy's artistic skills and he decided that his life savings would go to Andy's education at College. Around that same year, Andy attended Schenly High School then soon he graduated in 1945 (3 years) . He studied pictorial designs in Carnegie Institute Of Technology (Known as Carnegie Mellon University. )

How to be a good Daughter

peach  (Helpful and important)

How can you be a good daughter? Being a good daughter means to be helpful,supportive and
enthusiastic.Are you a good Daughter?

1.Being Helpful:

Being Helpful is 1 of the most of what you should really do.Helpful translates
to doing things that are helping at least.Whenever they need help, just go for it and ask
if they need help if they say no or etc just do it and help.
For example,imagine if your Mother or father needs help for a job or handing them things they need.
But you also have to be really kind to them don’t just be rude towards them because they did everything
for you

2.Being supportive :

Showing support is something that you should definitely do to whoever is with you especially
with your parents.You need to support them when they are sick, at the hospital or
even performing you have to at least clap for them and be happy not just be like a meanie
who doesn’t care.They are singing and when they are done you clap and smile to show
that you enjoyed it.For example,when something good happens or you get either 1st,
2nd or 3rd your family should show support onto what you did just like how you should
do when they do something like that.

3.How to be a good role model and being enthusiastic?

you need to be awesome and happy when something like showing respect.Being a good role model
means showing them how you actually are by demonstrating them things that they might or
might not need help with.It also means how you should feel like but for example,
they see you do something that is very encouraging then you need to be as normal as you usually
are but being nice to others.

Conclusion: Did this actually helps you to be nicer to be a good Daughter to those who care for you?
They would do anything for you.Is there anything that you want to do for them?
Always be a good role model to others as well.  What can you do to be a good role model?

Term 4 Intro

Today was a new start for Term 4 which is the last term for the whole year but also for the year 8's.As a school we usually  had an immersion assembly which our new theme which is called "Life's a stage".Life's a stage is all about drama,being dramatic and telling stories also dancing.But before that we had done that the whole of team 5 had a assembly  but it was all about 2 languages that are happening this week.I'm hoping for that we do some fun things during the term as we have athletics in week 5.For my goals for this term is to enjoy myself and be more confident to others.The one thing I want to remember for myself is to be more focused and do my best.

Well Persuasive means ti convince other people into what you believe or convincing them to do something. We had to choose any statement to write about and I decided to choose this. Hope you enjoy.

The Assembly

Today it was the first day back at school from the Holidays for Term 2 so we had an assembly. So for this term each class would learn or do navigation. For Team 1 they would be learning about looking after bees and other animals as well so by saving bees they will make a pathway for the bees with everyone's help. Next Team 2 would use navigation's by looking up,underneath,looking left or right and turning around to find things. For Team 3 they would choose their own adventures by deciding their choices and deciding where to go. For Team 4's one in the video the Team 4 teachers had to find Pt England School by not using their phones or GPS to go to a meeting with Mr Goodwin so they had an map and a compass to navigate their way when Mrs Sio had an Idea where to go she had made everyone go to KFC instead of school. Lastly Team 5 would be using a map and go around the whole world. So for this term the theme is Lattitude. I would wonder for this term what are we doing?
