Introduction This term we have been learning about some of the art principles - contrast, emphasis, repetition and pattern. Artists use these principles as tools/tricks to organise the elements of art within a work of art. Focus Here is a recap of the principles we have covered this term: CONTRAST is the arrangement of opposite elements: light vs dark, rough vs smooth, large vs small. It’s often shown in by using opposite elements. It’s used to create visual interest and drama in a piece of art. EMPHASIS is the part of the design that catches the viewer's attention. Usually the artist will make one area stand out by contrasting it with other areas. The area could be different in size, colour, texture, shape, etc. REPETITION refers to one object or shape repeated.

Introduction This lesson involves a lot of reading, and not all of it is exciting! I promise, the activity is

simple and fun though 😊 Who was Isaac Newton? Isaac Newton held many titles, such as mathematician, astronomer, author. We’ll be discussing his work from his physics studies. Newton’s first three laws of motion are as follows:

Introduction Practise makes perfect It takes practise to get really good at anything! Start by singing: “We are Australian” Now Clap along to the rhythm patterns that you used last week: Rhythm Reading – Stage One Rhythm Reading – Stage Two Rhythm Reading – Stage Three

Focus Create your own rhythm patterns and clap along to them. Below this work program, there is a worksheet for you to use to make your own rhythm patterns. Read the instructions carefully and make your patterns.

Introduction Warm up: Play a game of Fitness Simon Says! Play with someone in your house. Don’t get tricked! If you get tricked do 5 star jumps to play again!

PATTERN is a combination of elements or shapes being repeated.

Explore This week you will be completing an assessment task to show all the great learning you have been doing in art. To show your knowledge of the four principles (contrast, emphasis, repetition and pattern) you will be creating a flip chart. Watch this video!

You will need:

White paper

Grey lead pencil

Coloured pencils, crayons or textas

Newspaper, magazines, catalogues (optional)

Scissors

Glue Steps:

1. To begin, make your flip chart using the steps below:

2. On the front of each flap write the

four principles of art, one for each

The first law can be described when you move forward in your seat when the car brakes. Your body is at rest, and it wants to remain at rest, even when the car decelerates (slows down). When propulsion engines are designed, the second law comes into play. A rocket needs to reach a speed of 7.9 kilometres a second to break through the atmosphere and reach space. Now that’s fast! For this acceleration to be reached, the amount of propulsion (force) from the engines must be calculated perfectly. The force from the engines must be equal to the size of the rocket (mass), multiplied by the acceleration. That’s some detailed maths! The third law is in play around us all day. In Literacy studies, you investigated cause and effect; this literary device perfectly sums up this law. Push your accelerator down in the car, and it moves forward: push it down harder, and the card moves faster. Activity For this activity you need a small ball, and a larger ball. I’ll be using a tennis ball, and a soccer ball. There are three things you need to do: 1- Stand up straight and hold the smaller ball against your chest. Drop it without any force and watch how high it bounces back. The ball drops slower than if you if you push it because of the first law. The ball bounces back up because of the third law. The distance the ball bounces is because of the second law (the faster a ball falls, the greater the bounce). 2 – Try the same thing with the larger ball. Did you notice anything different? Did the ball bounce higher/lower?

ASSESSMENT TASK Film yourself doing your patterns.

Make sure that I can see your pattern and you clapping it. Submit it

on Microsoft Teams > Specialists > Performing Arts> Week 7. Save as

your name to show Mrs Hofmann. OR

Take a photo of your rhythm patterns. Submit it on Microsoft Teams > Specialists > Performing

Arts > Week 7. Save it as your name to show Mrs Hofmann.

AND/OR Try this NEW Avengers workout to warm up every muscle in your body! Click me to start the warm up! Main Activity: Two Handed Strike! This week we are learning all about the two-handed strike! This skill is used across many sports such as cricket, baseball and hockey! Watch Mr Henshaw’s video to learn more about this skill and to see this week’s task!

CLICK ME TO WATCH THE VIDEO 😊 OR – Instructions below. Before you play:

If you do not have a bat at home, you can make one out of rolled up newspaper: Sticky tape it together to make your bat nice and strong!

Make sure you are holding your bat

correctly. It is a good idea to make two letter V’s with your hands and put your dominant hand (the hand you write with!) on top.

Always stand side on to your target. Stand next to the ball when you're about to hit it!

Always keep your eyes on the ball and look around you before you swing for safety!

You will need a ball for today’s activities. You could also use a scrunched-up piece of paper (tape it together to make it stronger) or a rolled-up pair of socks.

flap – contrast, emphasis, repetition and pattern.

3. Then underneath each flap explain what the art principle means. You can cut and paste, draw or illustrate it, write key words or a definition.

ASSESSMENT TASK! Take a photo of your work and submit it on Microsoft Teams >

Specialists > Art > Week 7. Save it as your name to show Mrs Gilligan and

Ms Keem! SOMETHING FUN Now the assessment is all done, time for something fun! Food Art Turn your lunch or snack into a cool artwork.

Google food art to find more inspiration 😊

3 – Now here’s the fun part. Balance the smaller ball on top of the larger ball and drop them both at the same time. What did you notice this time about the balls? Click here to see me perform the lesson. The reason the smaller ball bounced higher when place on top of the larger ball is because of a combination of Newton’s first three laws of motion, as well as James Prescott Joule’s discovery of energy transfer. Click here for a great link discussing this. Write down what happened when you tried the experiment. Add a detailed picture to add

to your work 😊

Optional Upload your writing and picture to

to show Mr B.

Challenges: Level 1: Use the bat as a hockey stick. Dominant hand in the middle of the stick, opposite hand holding the part of the stick that is closest to your body! Try to hit a ball along the floor in between two cups! Level 2: Use the bat as a golf club. Hands together at the top, dominant hand on top. Try to score the ball inside the cup! Level 3: Use the bat as a racquet and try to hit a balloon using a forehand and backhand strike. Keep two hands on the bat! Level 4: Use the bat as a cricket bat and try to hit the ball of a small tee. You could use an upside-down pan. How far can you get your ball? Can you knock down some targets? Level 5: Use the bat as a baseball bat. Hold the bat high behind your shoulder and try to hit the ball of a large tee. You could use a stool. How far can you get your ball? Can you knock down some targets? Level 6: Create your own striking game up using the bat! Reflection: What was your favourite way to use the bat? What was the trickiest way to use the bat? Try to practice this skill more!

Optional Film or take a photo of your child completing a level. Submit it on
