Gr. 6 Math Isometric Drawings - Wednesday, June 7, 2017

Extra practise for identifying front, top and side views:
https://ca.ixl.com/math/grade-7/front-side-and-top-view


For class today:
Isometric Drawing Tool

Example and Challenge
The above link shows an example of how to look at your 3D cube structure to get the top, side and front views. Next, it supplies sets of top, front and side views and you use the Isometric Drawing Tool to build your structure, checking that the views match.

Do They Match?
This link shows you sets of isometric drawings of cube structures, you:

1. Predict which pairs could be drawings of the same object.
2. Draw the figures using the Isometric Drawing Tool.
3. Use the Inspect mode to determine whether or not their predictions were correct.
4. For the pairs that could represent the same object, list the Rotation Control values they used to verify their answers.
5. For the pairs that could not represent the same object, explain why.

Mrs. Thompson was not at school today, but here is the work that the students had for today:

Science
Gr. 6 - Read Nelson Literacy Book C pg. 50-55. As you read together, make a note listing and describing the technological tools and devices needed for space exploration and short descriptions of each.
Gr. 7 - Finish writing the key ideas note for 8.8, then answer pg. 220 #2, 3, 5 with complete sentences. 

Literacy
All - read The Outsiders, each student made a note brainstorming what they think is "TUFF"

Visual Art
All - students went through examples and criteria for a collage (see next blog post), students began to work on their Tuff Collages

Math
Gr. 6 - top, front and side views of the playground equipment, then an isometric sketch of the equipment from a different view. 
Gr. 7 - practised using compass and ruler to create 30 degree and 60 degree angles, as well as 90 degree angles, angle bisectors, perpendicular bisectors and parallel lines. Note for congruent triangles (side-side-side, side-angle-side, angle-side-angle), then practised this theory with two triangles (given) and had to prove congruency or not.

Have a great night, don't forget to get your permission forms signed for the Tech Summit (all) and VIP fun day (Gr. 6 only)

Collage

DEFINITION:

(noun) - Collage derives its name from the French verb coller, to glue. The work of art is made by gluing things to the surface. Collage became an art form during the Synthetic Cubist period of Picasso and Braque. At first, Pablo Picasso glued oil cloth to his surface of Still Life with Chair Caning in May of 1912. He glued a rope around the edge of the oval canvas. Georges Braque then glued imitation wood-grained wallpaper to his Fruit Dish and Glass(September 1912).

Braque's work is called papier collé (glued or pasted paper), a specific type of collage.

EXAMPLES:

CRITERIA:
What do you notice about the examples? What do you already know about creating a collage?
- All background space is covered
- All images/words/phrases revolve around the same topic
- Images, illustrations, words, and phrases are all allowed
- The placement of items is planned out, and not random, in order to communicate the artists desired message to his/her audience.
