Novel Study: Prezi

From the start of the term, we have been doing novel study. I had to create something that presents my novel study. I chose to make a prezi to present what I've done. It is below, Please comment!

Van Gogh's Starry Night Painting.

Over the past six weeks, we have been learning about van Gogh's painting called ‘A Starry Night’. We cut up his painting into 6 pieces and we chose a piece each. It was only the Year sixes. I painted a bit with stars and a moon at night. We used van Gogh’s techniques like using small swirly strokes to make the sky look windy and swirly. I chose a medium sized brush to make my painting look like his. The painting was a picture of a nighttime sky with a little village and a big black curvy mountain. I used a sponge brush to use the night sky then the swirly bits on top. I had lots of fun doing MY unique painting. :-) We used SOLO to describe our thinking. My thinking is Multistructural because I can describe several things about van Gogh’s painting skills. My next step is to describe several things about van Gogh paintings and explain why I used this skill in this way.
