Coraline - Theme Guide

 Be grateful for what you have / looks can be deceiving

1. For example in the movie coraline she took her real parents for granted for a saying she liked her other parents because they could make better food, Spend more time worrying about her and play the piano. She liked what she saw before they made her a offer and that offer was if she wanted to continuously have good food and have more attention she had to sow buttons into her eyes but the thing is the other mother looked nice but really she was a Bad demon spider and we seen that when coraline tried to escape.


2. Looks can be deceiving for example when you have done something wrong and people look at you very weirdly but in the movie coraline when the other mother and other dad were giving coraline deceiving looks was when she passed on getting her eyes sown so she could stay with her other parents in that dimension forever the she got scared and tried to go to sleep but she couldn't.


3. When they first met the cat also known as charlie he was wet and looked scary for some people. But later on in the movie you could notice a change in the cat it wasn't trying to do anything bad it was actually trying to guide coraline to her right steps to get out of the mess she had made for a good minute she was struggling without some clues from the cat but then she noticed that he could talk which made her find everything a lot easier

My Hand - Science

This term I made a hand out of paper and we used straws as the bones
so first we got a piece of paper that had a hand on it then we cut it out. 
After we cut it out we cut the straws into little strips then we sellotaped 
the pieces of straw on the hand, then we cut out string and put it through 
the wholes then it turned out like this. 

The tendons are the things that make our bones/phalanges move

The straws on the hand represent the bones that make up the hand. The string going through the strings represent the tendons. Three straws on each finger except the thumb to represent the bones in the fingers.

Bones:The bones in our body gives up structure without them our bodies would have no support. 
Joints: Joints are where two bones meet. They make the skeleton flexible without them, movement would be impossible.  
Tendons: Tendons connect muscles to bones, allowing us to move.
Ligament: Ligaments help to hold things in place.
Muscles: Muscles function to produce force and motion.

Crossword - English

What am I learning?
I am learning visual and sound techniques used widely in film; why they are important, how they are used and what the definitions of these words mean. 

How does this show my learning?
By creating a crossword puzzle I am showing that I know the definition to key words related to visual and sound techniques and show that I am able to teach other people. I am wondering what are some other things that are also important in visual and sound techniques; and also what are the most important to create a great film. 

How does this work show/affect my learning? It shows how much I have learnt so far What am I wondering as a result of this learning? I wonder if I'm actually doing this correctly or incorrectly
