Buenos Dias/Buenos Noches, Bloggers!

This activity was all about getting into your groove! Using a site called Groove Pizza, I was able to create an awesome beat! There were 3 types of sounds you could include in your beat. I used all of them to create a unique piece of music.

I really enjoyed this activity because it helped me use my musical ear. Talking about musical ears, if you listen very closely to my beat, you can see that the beat slightly changes throughout the four 2 second beats.

Here is my beat:

What changes would you make? Can you hear the differences?

Bonjour, Bloggers!

Just like my previous post, I am doing the Comic Quest, but this time I am doing the Step-It-Up! For the step it up, you get to create your own story (not related to the beach) and pick your own background. My background was the city.

For this story, I made it about a man who lives alone and really wants a dog. He passes by a shop and finds the perfect one! But what happens? I loved creating this because it reminded me of my dogs and adopting them.

Here is my story:

What do you think? Would you change anything about this? Do you have any dogs?

Kia Ora, Bloggers!

Yesterday, the SLJ officially started! I went to their page and picked the first activity that was published. It was called ‘Comic Quest’. For this activity, you were given a blank comic strip of a beach. On the last slide, there were stickers you could use such as a sandcastle, bucket, seagulls, umbrellas, people etc.

I created my own story about a talking crab. It all starts with a girl named Veronica sitting on the beach, when suddenly a crab walks up to her. Crabs don’t usually come to the beach, so Veronica was very confused. She was even more flabbergasted when she found out that it talks!

Here is my comic:

What do you think? What would you make your comic about?
