Hello to another coordinates blog! Today, we had to fill out this slide show and post it to our blog! There is one where you can look at the coordinates, and find the landmarks. I found it a bit hard, because in the last part, I didn’t really get the question it was asking me.
I know my Coordinates
Today I learned about coordinates. This is what I did
- Find and describe the location of an object using coordinates, grid references, and compass points.
- Describe the location of landmarks, giving the correct grid references.
- Describe the location of landmarks, giving the correct compass points and grid references.
Art ( David Hockney ) 🎨🖌
Hey there bloggers,
I know it’s been a while since I have blogged about something. Now I want to show you something.
this is my digital painting. Hope it’s good.
So our goal for this project was to understand the techniques of digital painting and the works of David Hockney. Things I unexpectedly learnt was hatching, circles, and techniques like that. The steps it took were very hard because I haven’t done digital painting before.
Here are some pictures of some experiments I have done
These techniques added to the final work because of layering to make it look realistic ( which I failed to do ). I enjoyed making the landscape in general because I like making landscapes. Something I struggled with is controlling the tablet and pen cause it kept glitching. If I could do it again, I would take a more simple one and use colour theory and hatching skills more instead of smudging it.
Here is something that I think represents the learning ( I made this ) ]
Thanks for reading this post. BYEEEE!!!!

Albert Bandura and David Buss |
Images, quotes, and referencing are completed correctly. |
|
Albert Bandura is famous for showing that people learn by watching and copying others, while David Buss is famous for explaining how our dating and relationship choices come from human evolution. | |
|
Albert Bandura’s discovery showed that people learn by watching others, shaping how schools and tech systems build confidence today, while in the future, smart simulations will help us practice everyday skills step-by-step. | |
|
The discovery of the Social Learning Theory by Albert Bandura has meant that we understand how watching others shapes our mental state Taha Hinengaro and daily habits. S
In the future this means smart tools will help us build inner confidence Taha Wairua by showing us positive family and community role models to follow Taha Whānau. |

Knowing how the theory of Social Learning and Operant Conditioning works impacts my Hauora by using role models and rewards to build up my mind Taha Hinengaro, family ties Taha Whānau, body health Taha Tinana, and inner strength Taha Wairua, but it can hurt my well-being if I copy bad influences, compare myself to fake online people, or only do things for quick prizes. |

Cyber smart task: Pop art! Term 4 week 4
Hi bloggers and readers! During Cyber smart we have been learning about pop art. Pop art is a type of art that usually pops up in comic books. Pop art is one of my favourite styles in art. I was allowed to choose one of the styles in pop art and I chose the Andy Warhol style. His style became famous because he had repeated the same picture in different types of colours. I chose his type because it looks easy. I hope you like my art! BYE!!
