SLJ : Step it up Summer Styles

Hi Bloggers!
Wow, Today has felt like a SLJ marathon but these tasks are so mesmerizing and fun to do . Like after finishing one I want to do another one. These have been so cool so far.

Wait.. are you wondering what is SLJ? Well.. The summer learning journey is a fun adventure you can explore through, You can do new activities each day because there is 1 activity launched each day! Crazy how much work the SLJ team puts into these activities! There are so many I can’t keep up, But with these incredibly fun activities there comes a reward, How to get the rewards? By getting points! How to get points? By being a cool edublogger! ( Blogging the SLJ activities ) . They can earn you points as well as comments. Sounds amazing right?

Well now time to talk to you about the Summer style activity. If you have seen my previous post then you would know I have done the Kickstarter activity for Summer styles. If not you should 100% check that out after this blog post, the activity was so fun and cool, I am sure you would love it.  Who wouldn’t? Wait.. are you wondering about what kick start is and what is step it up? Well basically Kickstarter is like part 1 and stepping it up is part 2! Awesome right? You can do more FUN

Anyways!
The steps we have to do so we can do the Summer style activity is to watch the videos ( Obviously ) !  Then make a copy of the Google drawing linked to the slide. Then start to colour it in! This colouring was fun and felt relaxing to do. I chose some gradient colours which looked amazing!
Anyways here is my artwork

I made it like Land / Dirt , Lake , Rocks, Ocean , Sand and hills!

I tried my best to make it look nice. This was relaxing to do, it felt like mindful colouring but on the Chromebook..

Reflection : I think I did well on this, I liked how I coloured it , This was fun to do and I quite enjoyed this task. This task was easy to do though. Have you done this task yet? If you have I would love to see it ( You could leave a comment with a link 🙂 ).
Thanks for checking out this blog post!
See you in my next one

SLJ : Kickstart Summer Styles : Summer Learning journey

Hi Bloggers!
In today’s blog post I have done another summer learning journey activity, in case you’re wondering, Summer learning journey is an adventure to do in the summer holiday. But the “Fun” part is the rewards, like a Chromebook, Headphones, Headset , Key board , Electric toy car and so much more! This helps kids to still be motivated to learn during the holidays, What motivates them? The prizes / rewards!  There are many tasks and activities to do. 1 task is launched each day . you can earn prizes by points. Sounds cool right? Well it is super cool!

Anyways here is the activity I have worked on. The activity is called Summer styles, This activity is about making contrast with lines or  warm and cool colours. We watched some videos on how to do it then we could choose between doing line contrast or colour contrast, I decided to do. This was a interesting task to do because for this task we could do it by hand on paper or on our Chromebooks. I decided to do the task on my Chromebook, I opened up a Google drawing and I used the line tools and shapes to make this contrast. I hope you enjoy it.

I am so proud of how this turned out, it took me so long to make and I started from scratch. I hope you enjoyed it! I loved making this.
Have you ever done this on Google drawings before? If you have done this before , you can comment a link to it, I would love to check it out!
REFLECTION : I think I did so so well, I am so proud of how it turned out, I loved doing this but next time I would do the coloured one because I think that would be a bit more challenging. Loved this task!
Thanks for making this task SLJ!
See you in my next post!

SLJ : Step it up Groove Pizza : Summer learning journey

Hi Bloggers!
Welcome to another Summer learning journey blog post, In case this is your first SLJ post you have seen, SLJ is basically a journey that you can do in the summer which have loads of activities for you to do, Each post and comment earns you a point. These points help you get prizes like headphones, Chromebooks, books , and so much more. This is a super interesting journey so I hope you enjoy looking at this journey and learning with me!

I have done the step it up Groove Pizza and I am going to share it with you.  SLJ’s step it up task for the groove pizza is to make an album cover for a song and then make a song which goes with that album cover. Summer learning journey provided us with a template we could use for the album cover. I used the template but I changed up the colours and made a name for the song and added some images on it. This task is pretty interesting to do and it gets your brain going. Glad that I did this task! I decided to name the song Jazzy Jam because I wanted the song to be jazz and I was looking for a word that starts with the letter j.

Anyways now that you know about the task here is my Groove Pizza Step it up audio

I tried to make it jazzy because the name of the song is Jazzy Jam.
Now here is the screenshot of my pizza

And here is my album cover

Hope you enjoyed it!
REFLECTION : I think I did well on the music and making the music but for the album cover next time I would try to add more detail to it because it looks a little bit plain in my opinion.

Thanks for learning with me!
See you in my next post
Byee!!

SLJ : Groove Pizza Summer Learning Journey

Hi Bloggers!
I am going on a SLJ hunt, I have missed out on so so so so SO MANY tasks from being off my Chromebook, the amount is crazy honestly. I am on my 3rd task right now which I am about to share with you. In case this is your first SLJ post you have seen and you’re wondering… ” What is this Summer learning journey you keep going on about.. ” .

Well what is SLJ is below this text
What is SLJ?
Now time for our task!
Wait did you see the joke? Like I said what is SLJ is going to be below the text? If you didn’t get it that’s okay… Anyways , Now time to say what actually is SLJ
SLJ is a fun journey that you can do during the summer holidays, The purpose of the Summer learning journey is to allow us to learn during the summer holidays as well as have fun! This is such an awesome journey because there is a new activity each day which is so so so so much fun to do and I have learnt so much. But with this summer learning you earn points from comments and SLJ posts. These points can earn you rewards! Sounds cool right?

Anyways, I have not done so many activities so I am going to be doing a lot of activities today.
Today’s 1st activity I am doing is the groove pizza, The groove pizza is basically a website where you can make a beat / make music on it in the shape of a circle ( Like the shape of a pizza ). You just move the beats to your liking and make some cool music. It sounds pretty awesome in my opinion. Once we finished our beat then we would watch a video on how to download it and then publish it, which is what I am doing right now, this task is pretty interesting to do and I really enjoyed doing it .

So now here is my audio

This was so fun to do! It got my brain working for the start of the day of SLJ activities, I look forward to doing even more SLJ activities. This website is so cool and I will definitely use this once in a while when i’m a bit bored. Thank you so much SLJ for making such a good and fun task.

REFLECTION : I think I did well, I loved making the beat and at the end it sounded nice, The video on how to use Groove pizza was a little bit confusing though at first, But I ended up getting it at the end. This was so fun , thanks for sharing this task with the cluster SLJ!

Thanks for checking out this awesome SLJ task
I look forward to see you in my next one!
Gonna go do more tasks now..
BYE!
