Technology Reflection

Today was our normal Thursday because as usual we have gone to Technology at Tamaki College, this week for technology we were drawing 7 circle patterns and as you can see down the bottom there that is a 7 circle pattern/drawing.

This week was fun because I got to try something new because I have never done a 7 circle pattern/drawing but unfortunately mine was not coming out as good and I have not completely finished so I will show some images down below. Using this 7 circle pattern/drawing can give you many different designs such as a star, cubes and a circular flower pattern/drawing.

Something I found challenging about this lesson is I think using the compass to draw seven even circles to me that personally was the hardest thing about this lesson and I think that was the only thing I found challenging today because I don't use compasses I just draw uneven circles and thing like that.

My favourite part about today was probably trying to use the compass even though it made me a bit angry at points because it kept moving and not coming out looking like a circle I still tried and things like that, another thing I think I really enjoyed about today was seeing my friends try it because they thought it was hard but I liked how they tried their best.

Today for Technology we were finalising our phone stand designs I think my phone stand came out very very good because I had been working on it all last term and all this term as well, I think my next goal is to finish the 3D printing and everything like that so I can take it back with me to show everyone, we also didn't have our original teacher for graphics because she was not here so we had a lovey teacher named Ms Smallwood.  

Another thing we did today was make a presentation and I will be inserting this after this reflection and everything, I thought that this task was really fun because I got to finish my design and write about it and very. Another thing I really enjoyed today was sitting next to new people and I got to know some things I didn't know about them.

The thing I enjoyed the most with this weeks Technology is that I finally got to finish my design and I am really proud because it took so long and things like that and I can't wait to see what it looks like after all the designing i'v done and I also can't wait to take it home, can't wait to take my design home!

Here is my Presentation - 

Technology Reflection

Today at Technology we got to learn things like Ellipse, Graduated Shading (Slowly), Cylinder and cone. Today was really fun because I got to learn so much from this lesson and things like that another reason why I really enjoyed this is because of how much I learnt from it, here are a few things that we learnt the first thing was Ellipse and this is when you get a square shape and draw centerlines, the next part is when you draw an oval shape in the middle. 

Another thing we learnt was Graduated shading where you started you shading dark and slowly started to make it light or when you make it dark light dark.

Something that im going to be taking away from this lesson of technology is that I can do things and things like that I will insert photos of our work and things like that down below.

Yesterday at Technology me and my group (Group 2) Got to learn so much im not going to say much because my whole reflection is up the top over there, I hope you enjoy my Technology Reflection!

Technology Reflection Lesson 3 - Sketch Models

Today at Technology we learnt many things how to use Plasticine and how to do things like sketch models, size, slope, support, and shape base which were all very important to make this phone stand.

I thought that this was very fun to do the creating before the actual drawing and I also really like it because I really got to think of what I wanted and I just really loved doing this and also because I liked playing with the plasticine and with all the tools we got to use as well.

Something I did well today was I think listening and trying my hardest even though it was fun to do the creating before the drawing but it was also really hard and I think I did pretty well with this and as I said trying my best because I have never really handled this type of clay/material before but I did really try my best and things like that.

Something I think I need to work on is to finish things faster so I can have more then one design and maybe next time have a better idea because I just rolled it and make a line in it and things like that and I think another thing I need to work on is to finish my blogging faster and technology that way I don't have to worry about it later on and things like that.

Technology Lesson 2

Comparing 2 different phone stand and phone cases so we can find out what type or kind we would like, Theses phone cases will be made out of ABS plastic and we will also be using a 3D printer if we would like to, I enjoyed this because it was educational and very fun at the same time because I got to form an idea of what I want my project, item or phone stand to look like.

In this lesson I learnt how to compare to objects that were the same but made with different materials and things like that and I also got to find out what type of phone stands my friends and peers liked and what they thought of mine, I also learnt what ABS is and it is a type of plastic and I also learnt that it is easy comparing to different materials because as you see at the top there's a wood phone stand and a metal phone stand, read the top drawing/comparison to read and see what I have done at technology.

Mary Jane - Graphics Lesson 1

Today the year 7 and 8's went to technology for the first time this year, it is very new to the new year 7 and I think they really enjoyed it and I enjoyed it myself as well one thing I have to say is that this is. Today we did a google drawing about ourselves and the things we enjoyed/liked .

We learned about how to make our backgrounds transparent and things like that by writing in png and another thing we learnt today was how to make collages obviously its not very hard by it was very fun to do because  I got to see what my friends were doing and they get to see what I like and things like. 

As you can see in the drawing we got to make an avatar if we didn't want to take a photo of ourselves and there is mine right there its not the best but I tried my best to make it look the same. 

And in the next section we will be learning how to make a phone stand.

Mary Jane TinkerCard - Graphcis leason 5 - Technology

Today at Tamaki primary school the year 7 and 8s went to technology, 

I am in graphics and we are learning how to use a new site named TinkerCard this is very fun because we learn how to make 3D shapes. 

I learned more and did more with this site because it was instresting and it taught us how to do different things with the site and if you dont know what to do it gives you different leasons to help you with it teachs you how to shape and things like that, My teacher for graphics Miss Fergason helped us learn more with TinkerCard like how to group things/lining them together and how to make them tranceperant which was fun because I learned more about this site and it could be handy for other things.

We also leanred a lot today and with the site you really had to listen because some of the timgs where tricky to do and I also liked this because we got to help each other when other people got stuck and didnt know what to do which was fun.

Here are some photos of the site TinkerCard and some photos of my work,

Mary Jane - Technology Leason 4 - Concept Ideas for jewellery

Today at Technology in Graphics we started to draw our jewellery ideas here is my paper, We started this last week and I had finished it. Now we are doing a different activiey we had to chose which one we wanted to do. I chose the flower because flowers are very bright and colour for like the person I am doing so I thought it discribed her the most,

Here is an image of what we started in Leason 4 -

I think that I did good on it but I have not finished it my favourite on at the moment is number 5 because I like the way the pencil is blened in with every thing and I also like the middle of it, 

Hope you enjoyed reading this blog post.

Technology - Leason 3 Product Research - Mary Jane

Today at Technology I did different discriptions on different jewellery, I thought this was fun because I got to do more research on jewellery. 

I tried to make things as detailed as I could to get more out so people can understand what I thought of the jewelley, we learned more things like different meaning for different words, some of those words are Unistructural, Multistructruall, Relational and the last one is Extended Abstract,

This is my Technology reflection hope you enjoy.
