Importance of bees

                The importance of 🍯bees🐝                  

Bees are super important for our ecosystem and agriculture. They play a main role in pollenating flowers. Pollination is when a male part of a flower reaches the female part so that a new plant can grow. Insects like bees are very important because they move the pollen from flower to flower. When the pollen reaches a flower its finds is way to the pistils, which is the plants female part, where there a eggs. Once the pollen has reached the eggs a new seed is created.

For this reason bees are very important for us! Some plants just need wind to be pollinated but other trees and plants need bees and other flying insects.
In the last years the number of bees has gone down for many reasons such as: pollution ,urbanization and use of pesticides, which are mixes of chemicals that farmers use to make plants for resistant and keep away animals. 

You can help bring bees back! Just plant some flowers in your garden and sooner or later these cute little creatures and could make your flowers their new home! Would you plant flowers to help save the bees?

 Here I have done my tessellation art.We had to get a sticky note and cut it to make the shape then we had to trace it on paper and draw the pattern of our choice inside.This is fun to do and I liked to get creative with my patters.Next time I would make my puzzles less wonky.

Salvadore Dali melting clocks

 Salvadore Dali melting clocks

w.a.l.t: Draw and paint inspired by Salvador Dali

This week we drew melting clocks in the style of Salvadore Dali, if you don't know who Salvadore Dali is well Salvadore Dali, born in 1939, made paintings, sculptures, and films about the dreams he had. He painted melting clocks and floating eyes, clouds that looked like faces, and rocks that looked like bodies. He died very wealthily at age 84 from heart failure in 1989. Now that you know a little about him here is my drawing.

This is my attempt at recreating A melting clock from Salvadore Dali's paintings, I personally hate this drawing, the clock looks like it has been cut in half, the shading is bad and it looks overall muddy, I think if I made the clock bigger and made the shading less muddy It could have turned out a lot better. On a positive note, I like how the dripping looks and it still looks like a clock.

First I drew a straight line and then a vertical line, then I drew a melting shape on the straight line, I drew sketched on the numbers and then shaded it in, thus creating my…” masterpiece”.

Do you think you can do it?

Negative space acrylic pour

 This is my negative space ✨acrylic pour💖.

This piece of art did not go as I planned it, but in a good way!

It may look difficult but the process was extremely simple.All you need is: a plank of wood,some paint,some straws,a cup and a balloon or two.

First you need to cover the whole board in white paint,then fill your cup up with paint, as many colours as you like,then pour it over the white paint(I recommend pouring from a corner and working your way down).After you have done that use your straws to blow the paint around,after the paint is to your liking blow up your balloon(not to much)and dip the balloon in the paint and dot the paint around the canvas(remember to leave blank spaces/negative space) ANNNNNNND YOUR DONE     Enjoy~~~

I think I could have spent less time mucking around and I would have been able to blow the colours around more. Overall I'm ok with the result.

😊😆Would you do this for decor or for fun?💗💖

logic maths puzzle

 WALT: making a paper puzzle

Today we made paper puzzles,it was hard.We were not allowed to touch the example and we could only look at it.I didn't like it because it was really hard.We finally got it.

This was mean.

I learnt that things that look complicated may not be as complicated as you think.

 

Identifying seeds

                            The hunt for the names

 Today for inquiry our teacher displayed 4 kinds of seed on his desk and we had to find the names for them.The pressure was on because our teacher said that the person who finds them first gets a reward,I finally found them and raced up to our teacher to see if they were all correct,he put a tick on each of them and smiled"Amara has found all of the names"I filled with pride,I was the first to get it,"Amara can you tell me?" "Amara can I see your answers please" "gimme those answers" boomed the class.

Here are the photos

Can you find out what these are?
