Wednesday 8th July
Art activity
Taking last week's Stik people, this week’s learning is going to make your people move, using stop frame animation.
You can explore this in two ways; either using this website
https://www.culturestreet.org.uk/activities/stopframeanimator/index.php?id=1
or using the 2Animate Programme on Purple Mash. Find it in Tools > Art & Design section.
There is a really helpful video to show you the basic tools on the top right hand corner of the screen.
Choose a background or make your own from this icon
And a really good way to make your animation run smoothly is to use the ‘onion skin’ tool which lets you see where the previous frames drawing is and copy over that and make small changes to your figures movement.
I have saved a rainbow background if any of you want to use that.
It would be great to see your figures dance, run, jump for joy or if any of you want a challenge, can you add sound to make them speak?
Don’t forget to save your work…. Enjoy!
Music activity
I have been loving your work on busy beats, you have produced some great compositions and I have been setting you some tricky tasks.
This week is a little freer, rather than following instructions, this week you are going to compose a piece of music that sounds like summer.
Can you get Ice Cream van chimes in, sounds that sound like waves or seagulls?
What do you hear?
How does the sunshine make you feel?
Think of all the skills we have learnt, recording melodies, creating interesting rhythms with doors, altering the volumes of samples.
Have fun! Mr Hornby.
Special Challenge:
Can you use the microphone? It is hidden in the My Sounds section, and you record the same way as we did in 2Sequence...but getting it to play in Busy Beats is trickier....you may need to hide it behind a door!
Tuesday 7th July
English activity
Today we are learning about homophones.
Homophones are words that sound the same but are spelled differently and have different meanings. E.g. knight and night, son and sun, bawl and ball.
