Leon's attempt at engineering shoes

In room 7 we have been learning about shoe structures and designs. The normal shoe structure is 

hard, soft, firm. For my shoe structure I put hard, soft, soft, firm and they were made out of the bottom of a gumboot, a sponge, a dishcloth and then on the top was a towel. I hot glued all of this together with hot glue. Once I put all of the padding in the bottom of my shoe I put the top of my shoe on that was a different type of towel I put that there to half your foot in when you walk.

Bens shoe

My shoe worked out how I wanted it because it works and it hasn't broke and I have worn it a lot. I think that I could do better on the staples because some of them keep coming out when I walk around. Over all I think that my shoe is awesome because I never knew that i could make a shoe that works and it's all homemade. My shoe layers were hard, soft, soft and it went tyre, sponge and then dishcloth. i like my shoe and think I did an amazing job.

Lucas' shoe

This term we had a task to create a shoe. I decided to make s fully covered in shoe out of an old shoe, and an old tyre. We also had to make a layering system, I made mine out of a piece of rubber, a sponge and pillow stuffing. After I figured out how much rubber I needed to cut I started to layer. After layering I started putting on the rubber, I had too much rubber so I folded it over and glued it down. It looked quite tight and when I put my foot inside my shoe it split. Next time I would need to be figure out exactly how much rubber I need.

Van Gogh starry night.

For art in room 7 we had to try and recreate starry night from Vincent Van Gogh using the small, thick, flick technique that Van Gogh used. Of course it does not match up because we are not as good as vn Gogh but we tried our hardest to do it. We had six in our group and we each had a different part Boston did the bottom left, Jayden did the middle bottom, Alyssa did the bottom right, Leon did the top left, Courtney did the top middle and Ryan did the top right.

Starry night - Vincent Van Gogh

For art, our group worked together and assigned each other parts of the Starry Night painting.

We worked separately, but in a group, because after we had finished our individual parts of the painting, we had to but all our parts of the painting together to create our own Starry Night.

There were six members in our group, Ashley, Bella , Nerissa , Katie , Emma, Nicole.

Here is our groups painting before we mount it.
