Nana’s in the plum
       tree
      By Jan Cartwright
Drawings by Murray Grimsdale

You need 3 people to read this story.
• Nana
• Young girl
• Narrator
“What are you doing up in that tree,
 Nana?” Nana didn’t even hear me.
Then I saw the bees. I could hear them
buzzing. I could see them swarming in
 the tree, like a big football made of
  bees. Nana was right beside them
             holding a box.
I didn’t want to look. I didn’t want to
see my Nana eaten alive by thousands
                of bees.
I put the big box where Nana told me. I still
didn’t want to look. But somehow I couldn’t
help looking. Nana put her box on top of the big
box, right under the swarm of bees. She told me
to stand back.

I stood back, all right!
I hid.
I hid behind the shed and peeped out.

Stained Glass Art
Take a photo of a student or scenery; use a photo filter or photo
effects on your photo editing software if it is available to turn the
photo into Stained Glass effect. Mac Users can do this in Word
from the Effects button on the Picture tool bar. Children can
recreate the Stained Glass effect using Black ink and Dye.
Stained glass pictures
Autoshapes
Ctrl D to duplicate.
Hold the Shift key down when clicking and dragging a shape
to get a symmetrical shape.
Hold down the Ctrl key to move the shape in small increments
Group the objects to move them as one graphic (select them
all and go to Draw - Group.


                                              Make a tessellation
Monet paintings
Take photos of gardens or flowers.
Open up a photo editing programme and play around with the effects or if you are a Mac user
open up Word or PowerPoint 2001,X or 2004 insert the photo, click on Special Effects (or
Effects) in the Picture toolbar and choose an effect for your photo.
Print out the photos. Children paint a picture using the photo as their motivation. This is a great
way to stop children from thinking that everything they draw or paint has to be real looking.
Me and ME
    Take a black-and-
    white headshot of
    each student,
    Insert it onto a page.
    Use the crop tool to
    halve the picture.
    Students draw the
    other half of the
    picture.
    To make it easier
    draw grid lines and
    children only draw
    what they see in
    each grid.
Or import this picture into
Kidpix and finish the
drawing
Jazzed up Portraits
Take photos of individuals, head and shoulder or whole body.
Transform those individuals by importing the photos into KidPix or a Paint
programme.
Use the draw tools to transform the photo.
Children take
a photo of
                 Distorted Faces
each other
and put into a
photo editing
programme
and change
the look of
the image.
Mac Users
can create
interesting
effects by
using Effects
button on the
Picture
Toolbar.
Windows
users can
use Photo
Editor in
Microsoft
Tools
Greeting Card
Take a photo of an individual piece of art work. Create a greeting card in Publisher,
The Print Shop or iPhoto
Tonal Drawings
Take a photo of a scene or use the Macro
function on the camera to take close up shots.
Change it to Grayscale by clicking on the Colour
button in the Picture toolbar.
Click on Washout.
Children draw the picture using pencil or ink wash
to show tonal areas.
Save the picture and then
Import into a drawing
programme like Artrage
or KidPix.




                            Artrage
Using the Macro feature


               MACRO


Look for this symbol on your camera
      and take close up shots
Disclosure
        What do you think this is?

Take a super close up of an object with a video camera
or a camera and children make predictions of what it is.
Could show it as a SlideShow with the first slide being
the close up, the next slide could show a little more and
so on until the children discover what it is.
This could be an introduction to a new topic.
