Making Music

Today during our Cybersmart session we explored three different sites to help create your own music.
I used Incredibox to create this short piece...click here to listen.
My next step would be to record a piece of music from an alternative site, like Turn Art into Music or Digital rhythm maker.
It was fun trying different beat combinations and hearing the music come together as you added each element.

The science of yeast

Today we created a 'gif' to demonstrate our understanding of the science behind yeast.  Our gif highlights the process involved with activating the yeast and the chemical reaction which occurs to produce carbon dioxide.  This the process which aids in making light and fluffy bread!

My 80's poem

Our learning around 'Changing Times' has had us interviewing family members and reflecting on decades from the past.  A challenge this week has been to create a poem that reflects 'you and your time'.  I thought back to my childhood in the 80's.  My first step was to brainstorm a list of objects and memories then put my reflections together to create either a list or rhyming poem.

Here is my effort to capture the 80's!  Keep an eye on the students blogs to read their own decade poems.
