Electives - photography

This year Kereru Syndicate have started something new called electives. The idea is that on Friday afternoons students work in groups with a mix of other Year 5-6 Kereru students.

The activities are:
Mr Kyne-sports
Miss Evans-Garage Band
Mrs Wilson-photography
Mrs Gordon-art with nature
Mrs Maass-science
Mrs Hughes-BP technology challenges
Mrs Goodin-2D and 3D art

This term all students have gone to all activities for about 30 minutes. This has been a taster or preview of the activities. Students then make their elective or choice requests for next term.

With Mrs Wilson students had to work with a partner and use the ipads to take photos of 10 different things. We learnt about filling the frame or filling up the whole photo with what we were taking it of, making sure it was in focus and having a good background. We also learnt how to edit on the ipads, especially cropping.

We had to take photos of something:
-something multi coloured
-something bumpy
-something wet
-something our group made
-a triangle
-a number
-the letter e
-an action show
-repeated shapes
-a selfie with our partner

Here are some examples of our photos.
