‘Twas the night before Christmas, when all through our house…

Your challenge:  Create 3 very different pieces of artwork achieving different effects/moods.

Summary:

1. Use Revelation Natural Art.
2. I will suggest some different themes for you.
3. Save each piece of art in your own folder
4. Copy images onto a j2e page and print out – don’t forget to put your name on it!

Success steps:

1. Open Revelation Natural Art (Start – Programs – )
2. Experiment with different tools
3. Find out how to: Change brushes, colour, fill, line, undo, clear page
4. Save file
   1. use a sensible name, eg blue circles
   2. save as file type: jpg
   3. save in your own folder (computer – 4e on Phoenix – Your name )
5. Log into j2launch  www.j2e.com/launch
6. Upload pictures to My Files
7. Put pictures on page, add name and print

Challenge:  Create a rainforest picture page border.

Summary:  Use Revelation Natural Art to create own rainforest pictures.  Copy them into j2e and use copy, paste, group to arrange them.

Success Steps:

1. Create simple picture in RNA
   1. make it simple, big and bold
   2. ** make two pictures to combine
2. Save as png (so that the background is transparent) to your folder

4. Import/drag into j2e
5. Copy, paste to combine pictures
6. Group, copy and paste
7. **use grid and snap to line up images

Today we are going to try to improve our algorithms for drawing letters in Textease.

PLEASE make sure you are keeping all of your instructions on a page along with the pictures they draw – soon we will print and I will want to see what you have done.

Steps for success today:

1. Complete a letter
2. Add instructions at the end so that your turtle is ready for the next letter (you will need pu and pd)
3. Do another letter
4. Tidy up algorithm, label it, **label parts
5. Set up a procedure to type a letter
6. Use setfillcolour command (see Textease help) **What can you do about letters with holes?
7. Make a letter flower by repeating your letter:  repeat 6 R rt 360/6 end
8. Shadow letter

Let’s start with a challenge!  Have a go at Blockly Maze  How far can you get?

Next we will look at LOGO using Textease Turtle.

1. Choose a letter, for example the first letter of your name.
2. Draw it as a bubble letter on squared paper using straight horizontal and vertical lines that always join dots.
3. Have a go at writing an algorithm (set of instructions) to make your turtle draw the letter.

Steps to success…

• LOGO instructions: fd 20   bk 20  lt 90   rt 90
• Remember lt means “turn left” not “go left”
• Plan your instruction on your paper
• Need a space between letters and numbers
• Select instructions (double click – red squares) then turtle/play button
• Try out often to test, then debug

Extension – draw a letter with a hole, eg A, R, O, D, B, etc

• Use pu (pen up) and pd (pen down) if you need to get somewhere without drawing a line
