Thank you so much parents for organizing materials. We will be safe, learn to take care of our own supplies, and be organized too!
Parents..... I miss you in school, another year without you around is hard for us in Art and in class. We will follow the rules and think positively.
We at SOIS have your child's safety as our No. 1 concern.

If you have finished the mind map and you are ready to draw on Wednesday for art
Try to make some basic 3D shapes out of paper
Look for the best video at your level. These need a ruler and glue. There are many great origami ones too.
This will help you in your class mapping project this week.
Have fun and try something new. Be sure you can pause the video.
How to Make a Paper Cube - easy origami
How to make a 3D Cuboid (rectangular Prism)
Try to find a cone or cylinder or other shapes you like that would be good in a 3D mapping project.
It is much harder to make on your own without a template. It is a good challenge for your spacial sense.
This a a real challenge. If any of these are easy try a harder shape.

Here is a start from G4 - after your do the symbols try to include pictures of each part.
Try to put in all aspects of your city.
Here is a map of the above ground and the underground from the past - my friend made this for the Minpaku museum.
This is a great artistic example in a 3D relief ( you can touch it) to show a shell mound in Tohoku and how people were living in the Jomon time period in Japan.
The ocean was so important to their city . What else do you see?
Thanks Holyn and Michael for your maps. Let's put in all the details to prepare for drawing on foam core in class next week.

Let's make a mind map of what to include in your above ground and below ground city drawing on foam core for ART! We will draw the final one in black permanent marker on the large foam core when you come back after golden week. We will use the plan based on what is in your sketchbook.
You might have missed some things so here is a list to consider.

Tomorrow for Art you can use colored pencils or watercolor to paint and draw the details, frames or pictures that you included. Use any paper or materials you have at home.
Mind mapping helps you categorize your city and it will also help you be sure you didn't leave anything out. It also helps you learn and organize. It is visual learning.
Here is a list from me of what to consider please include as much as you can.
Highways transportation
Structures/monuments/ offices/banks
Living spaces
Green spaces/ Gardens
Malls/ shopping /stores
Sports areas/ Museums/ Amusements
