Zebras

Lance Lawrence, a world-famous animal researcher, was recently

interviewed about his studies on zebras. Mr. Lawrence has been

studying zebras in Africa for over fifteen years. He believes that zebras

are the most fascinating animals in the world.

“There are three different species of zebra: the plains zebra, the

Grevy’s zebras and the mountain zebras,” Mr. Lawrence explained.

“Plains zebras are the most common type. They live in the grasslands of

eastern and southern Africa.”

Mr. Lawrence feels that the zebra is a truly beautiful animal. “Zebras are

famous for their black and white stripes,” he explained during his

interview. “Although the patterns can be very similar, no two zebras

have exactly the same stripe. Their stripe patterns make them attractive

to look at. The designs are enchanting!”

“Another interesting fact about zebras is that they sleep

standing up,” said Mr. Lawrence. “They only sleep when they

are in large groups though, so they can be alerted of

danger.”

Zebras are one of the most valued African animals. We

must look after them. We should also support

researchers like Mr. Lawrence, who provide a

wonderful insight into the lives of these creatures.

Level 3 Maths: Inverse Operations Multiplication and Division

Inverse Operations Example

What is 18 ➗ 2 = ?

● How many lots of 2 is 18?● Count by 2’s to get the answer

2, 4, 6, 8, 12, 14, 16, 18 (9 lots)

I also know 2 x 9 = 18 so 18 ➗ 2 = 18

Answer using inverse operations to solve these division sums:

1. 32 ➗ 4 = 2. 40 ➗ 5 =

3. 20 ➗ 4 = 4. 24 ➗ 2 =

5. 16 ➗ 4 = 6. 20 ➗ 5 =

Read the words aloud. HIGHLIGHT the words that DO NOT have the ‘ir, ur, or, er’ SOUND.

Underline the ‘ir, ur, or, er’ grapheme in words that DO make the sound.

E.g. For has been highlighted because ‘or’ doesn’t represent our focus sound ‘ir’as in bird. The grapheme ‘or’ is correct but it doesn’t match the focus sound.

o The abstract world of KandinskyExplore abstract art and music inspired by artist Wassily Kandinsky

Student visual arts and music resource developed by The Arts Unit

Years 3 to 6 visual arts and music

▪ What will I learn?This is a series of 3 lessons.

In these lessons, you will:

▪ explore the concept of abstract art and the work of Wassily Kandinsky

▪ identify shape, form and colour used in Kandinsky’s work

▪ create abstract artworks experimenting with shape, form and colour

▪ appreciate the work of other students inspired by Kandinsky

▪ experiment with music and art in Chrome Music Lab.

▪ Before you beginYou will need:

▪ a device to watch the videos (for example, an interactive whiteboard, a computer

or a tablet)

▪ art supplies to create your Kandinsky-inspired masterpieces. This could include

paints, crayons, markers, textas, chalk, paintbrushes.

▪ a ruler, pencil or markers for drawing geometric shapes.

education.nsw.gov.au

▪ Who is Wassily Kandinsky?Wassily Kandinsky was a Russian painter who was born in 1866.

As a child, his parents expected him to paint pretty landscapes and still-life paintings, just

like everyone else.

But Kandinsky was different. It is thought that he had synesthesia, which influences your

senses. People with synesthesia feel, see, hear, smell and taste things in unique ways.

He wanted to paint music. He said he could hear bold, swirling colours and see vibrant

coloured sounds. He wrote about hearing a hissing sound while mixing colours in his

paintbox.

The way Kandinsky saw and heard life greatly influenced his art and he grew up to be one

of the first creators of abstract art.

Abstract artworks use colours, lines and shapes. They are not intended to look like real

objects or living things. Abstract art is more about the feelings the artwork expresses.

Watch this video to learn a little more about this amazing abstract artist.

Art With Mati & Dada – Kandinsky

o Lesson 1 – Kandinsky circles

▪ Before you beginThroughout his career, Kandinsky loved to explore circles. He thought of circles as a

symbol of progression and renewal.

He created many artworks using circles for his inspiration.

Squares with Concentric Circles is perhaps his most famous circle artwork. We will be

using this artwork as our inspiration today.

Concentric circles are circles inside other circles, getting smaller as they reach the centre

point, like a bullseye target.

https://www.wassilykandinsky.net/work-370.php

▪ 1. ColoursSquares with Concentric Circles is one of the colour studies Kandinsky did to explore

how different colours felt when combined next to other colours.

Look at his circles. Do you notice how different some

colours look when next to other colours? Can you see

how the red looks different when it is next to colours

like yellow or orange compared to when it is next to

blue and green?

Why do you think this is so?

2 The abstract world of Kandinsky - @The Arts Unit Creative Classes

You might want to think about the colour wheel and how colours work together.

Discuss your thoughts with other classmates or people around you.

Remember this discussion as you get ready to create your own concentric circles

masterpiece.

▪ 2. Colours and emotionsKandinsky was very inspired by colour. He felt that colour could express emotion even

without showing any particular object or figure. Colour on its own could tell the story of his

art.

Look at the emoticons and write down what colour you think of when you feel this

emotion.

Compare your answers with others in your class or someone else around you. Do you

have the same colours or different colours?

© NSW Department of Education, Jun-20 3

▪ 3. CreateNow it is your turn to create an artwork inspired by Kandinsky's concentric circles.

Think about what colours you would like to use. Perhaps each segment will represent a

feeling or a moment in your life. For example, you might use in one square 'happy' colours

from when you won a football or netball game, and in another 'confusing' colours from

when you were sitting a test.

It is all up to you!

▪ 4. AppreciateLook at these amazing artworks from students in NSW public schools as part of the

Operation Art project.

Read their descriptions to see how they were inspired by Kandinsky's work to create their

artworks.

Sport - Olympics Update

There were songs, parades and fireworks, as the Tokyo Olympics officially came to an

end. These very different Olympic Games wrapped up last weekend. The US topped

the medal tally with 39 gold medals. China came in 2nd and Japan 3rd. As for us

Aussie's, we did pretty well coming in 6th with 17 gold medals and 46 in total.

That was thanks to some very impressive Aussie athletes including swimming legend

Emma McKeon. She's now the second woman in history to win 7 medals in a single

Olympics. There were also some Aussie wins in new categories. BMX rider Logan

Martin made history claiming the first Olympic gold in BMX freestyle, while Aussie

Keegan Palmer won a skateboarding gold. The history making doesn't stop there. The

Aussie men's basketball team won their first ever medal at an Olympic Games and

Andrew Hoy became Australia's oldest Olympic winner earning a silver in team eventing

at 62.

As fierce as the competition was, there were plenty of feel-good moments from this

year's Games, like when Italy and Qatar's high jumpers decided to share the gold after

spending hours in a tie. Or when Simone Biles reminded us that winning isn't everything

when she decided to pull out of some events but stayed on to cheer her teammates

before collecting a bronze. Oh, and what would we have done without Tom Daley's daily

poolside knitting and if you're already missing the games don't worry cause the

Paralympics are gonna start in a couple of weeks.

PE - Bouncing and Dribbling

Remember: Remember to use a safe space and take regular breaks when needed.

Today you will practise the skill of bouncing and dribbling.

For this activity you will need:

● A medium sized ball that bounces - like a basketball.

Bouncing and dribbling requires a lot of hand to eye coordination. Start simple and

practice dribbling the ball with one hand then move onto these challenges:

● Bounce the ball while turning around in a circle.

● Bounce the ball from one hand to the other (side to side).

● Bounce the ball lower than waist height and from one hand to the other (side

to side). Ensuring that the ball bounces outside of the knees each side.

● Bounce the ball from side to side using one hand only.

If your feeling confident move onto these challenges:

● Bounce the ball while moving forwards and backwards.

● Bounce the ball from one hand to the other (side to side) while kneeling

then standing. Try using one hand only.

● Creative challenge: Move any way you can while bouncing the ball.

Once you have completed the activities fill in the activity log on the next page.
