SLJ : Step it up Where’s Wally? : Summer learning journey

Hi Bloggers!

Back with even more SLJ ( Summer learning journey ) , I have done the step it up Where’s Wally? And I am excited to share this with you.
Incase you’re like wait what?! How are you doing step it up without your kick start finished? Don’t worry I have finished it and blogged it, If you would like to check it out I posted it a couple days ago. The task was pretty cool and if you have seen a Where’s Wally book then you probably will like it. Anyways let’s go talk about this task for Step it up!

The task for Where’s Wally step it up is to make an animation of Pac-wally aka based on the game Pac-man ! Just like a normal game of Pac-man the ghosts are out to get Pac and Pac has to make sure Pac doesn’t get destroyed by the ghosts. But we had to create this in an animation on Google slides. We could either use the starter ( One that we can finish ) or one to start our own. I decided to use the one that I could finish  because I didn’t quite know how to start it off and I kept adding slides onto it. This was a interesting task to do and I think it turned out well!

Hope you enjoy it

This task was interesting to do but it was very frustrating because as I moved Pac I had to move the other 4 ghosts and then sometimes I would forget to move them so when I went to play it the ghosts weren’t moving. So that bothered me a bit. But overall this was quite fun, It was kinda fun to do.

REFLECTION : I think I made this well, but I think that next time I would do Pac bumping into the ghost, It sounds pretty funny!! Anyways I liked the end result but I didn’t love making this. But overall this task was pretty fun and interesting.

Have you ever played Pac man before?
If you have when you first played were escaping or getting caught by the ghosts?

Thanks for learning with me!
Hope you learnt something new
Have a blessed and happy Christmas!
Bye!

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

Bye bloggers!

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 : 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!

 

SLJ : Where’s Wally? Summer Learning Journey

Hi Bloggers!
Sorry I have not been publishing / blogging much. I have done a summer learning journey task! The task is Where is Wally? Well… Where is Jolin is what I am calling it ! In case your wondering what is Summer learning journey?
Well basically…
The Summer learning journey is a fun adventure allowing students in the cluster to be able to do activities in the summer. This is such a cool journey because you learn so much new stuff, If it weren’t for the summer learning journey . But with all this fun there comes a PRIZE!!

There are prizes for people who get a lot of points, Points are from blogging, and doing activities, Prizes such as Chromebooks, headphones, electric stuff… , electric robot cars and so much more! And you also can get a certificate for participating. This is such a fun journey to do and it keeps me busy for hours, Also you learn so much.

Now that you know about this awesome event…
Let’s talk about this task.
The task is to make a Where is Wally but for YOUR avatar aka you! If you don’t know what  Where is Wally is ? Well it is basically like a bunch of avatars and like things in 1 picture and you have to spot the character. This task is quite fun to do , But it takes very very long if you put detail into it ( Unless you have really fast hands ) . I tried my best doing the task, We were given 3 examples at the start of Mrs Taylor, We had to try and spot her character! Then we would try making 4 of those but to make them differently obviously. I did try to make it less obvious, Let me know in the comments if you found me.

Now here is my Where is Jolin!
Reflection  : This was fun to do, I enjoyed doing this and I think I did well but I was wondering a lot of questions when doing this, I loved this task thank you SLJ for making this task!
Thanks for checking out my blog!
See you in my next one

Byee!!
