My calendar art

My calendar art represents my family and nature.

 It was hard to make because I didn't really know what I was going for, its based on my family and the kuro. There are five kuro one is my sister one is my other sister one is my dad one is my mum and one is me. My dad is the biggest kuro and my young sister is the smallest.

The hardest thing for me was planning what to make and coloring it, it was hard because it was hard staying in the lines and when I planned it, i made a lot of mistakes.

The easiest thing for me was drawing the kuro and going over it with a sharpie because once I had my plan I'm good at drawing kuro and going over with the sharpie was even easier.

What I'm proud of

I'm proud of the way it turned out in the end because the background and kuro went together very well.

Who created the Olympic values and why ?why?

Pierre de Coubertin was the man that made the Olympic values. He made the Olympic values because he wanted the Olympians to pursue excellence, enjoy the effort, have balanced minds, bodies and character, show fair play and respect others.

Our design project was to make a rap that explained the Olympic values.Here is our Olympic rap based on the Olympic values

The Olympic Rap

Sameer: The Olympic values, they have their pride, 

Sameer: they are dancing with joy, oh! Just nevermind. 

Jeevanjot: And don't forget the fair play, ya know, it's so awesome, LET'S GO!Jeevanjot: The respect for others is overwhelming, 

Sameer: I don't know what to say, maybe just don't give me a pounding?Jeevanjot: The positive is pretty good cause I know I'm rocking up that neighbourhood. 

Jeevanjot: Last but not least you gotta take it in and balance it out, 

Sameer: your mind and body needs to work if you want to do

How We Made Our Olympic Rap          

What We Needed:

GarageBand (IPad App)

Collaboration Muscle

Google Docs/Paper

Words for rap

Procedure of how we made our rap

First create the words that you will use in your rap. 

Then use GarageBand to make the best music that fits your words. 

Also,record your music. And your voice. Then put your voice and the music together.  

After go save it and then you should be done! 

Present the rap to your friends and family.

                  \Reflection/            ----------------------------------------------

Jeevanjot:I had a great time making our rap I was mostly on task I got distracted sometimes Cruze was not really doing any work but sameer was on task,I got back into to doing making our rap in the end we had to make a few changes and then we were done.

Sameer: It was a interesting and fun time to work with Jeevanjot and Cruze they both worked collaboratively with me. The most hardest thing for me was when we had to edit our rap and words so many times but at the end we were able to finish it. 

Cruze: When we started to create the rap I knew it would be a hard task, I never thought we would get this far. The hardest thing for me was finding the person who created the Olympic values

And the music for the rap was hard as well as creating the words.
