Autumn Webquest

Hi everybody!!

This morning when you entered into the schoolyard, have you also noticed all these wonderful colored leaves on the trees and on the ground? I looooove jumping in them! That's so much fun! Autumn is my favourite season!
I was wondering if you could help me to  show how much I actually love Autumn...

Check our cool sample webquest for Autumn!!

Perspective and photography

Today I will offer you to do a very fun activity of photography to learn how can we change the meaning of things playing with perspective, shape and figure.

1. Perspective

What you'll need:
- A smart-phone with a camera
- Some friends to pose for you
- Objects or landscape
- A bit of imagination and creativity

Choose the emelemnts you want to play with to take a fun picture like in the examples below:






2. Shape and figure

What you'll need:
- A smart-phone with a camera
- Some friends to pose for you
- Objects and landscape
- A lot of imagination and creativity

This time instead of playing with perspective we will play with the meaning of the things and change it when puting it close to an other object. Even though perspective is not the main element this time, also plays an important roll. Check out how in the example here below. The author only used the clouds and some objects and see the new meaning he got by positioning a new element close to the cloud:



3. Meaning

What you'll need (If making your own pictures):
- A smart-phone with a camera
- Some friends to pose for you
- Objects or landscape
- A lot of imagination and creativity

What you'll need (If choosing to make a collage):
- A magazine or an other source of picture such as books or internet
- Scissors and a ruller to cut
- Glue and paper
-A lot of imagination and creativity

Choose your pictures with two different meanings to create a new one. Select half of one picture and half of the other and now glue them!! Check the example here below:



Isn't it amazing? 

I cannot wait to see you projects! Please! Send me a picture when you are done!


WITH LOVE, TIK

Ever thought about why some animals are looking funny?

Why do animals look differently?

The answer is: Animals adapt to their environment. But it is not only about their appearance. It can also be about certain capacities. If an animal for example can run really fast, they will certainly stay alive for a lot longer. If they stay alive longer there is a higher chance to have babies. Their babies will then also be able to run faster and live also longer. After some time, all of those animals will be able to run really fast.

Find out more playing the great adaption game!! Take a photo of an animal and than choose the right option how this animal has adapted to the environment (we recommend playing without background music ;)):
