Expert Book – Babysitting

This is my expert book. It is called “Babysitting”. I chose this topic because I love it and I am good at it.

I had to work very hard to finish it. First I had to find ideas, then we had to write the draft, then after that we wrote the real paper. After that we went to the computer lab and typed the books on google slides and put them on our blogs. I think the most challenging part was finishing it and then editing it and revising it. My favorite part was getting to do the pictures.

I had a lot of fun doing this project and I hope you have more fun reading it!

ENJOY!!

 

The History of Typography

During our class in computer lab, Mr. Casal showed us a video about the history of typography. After watching the video I liked the style of the video because they made it funny but you learned from it. I don’t think that many people would choose that topic. I learned that first there was black letter then Roman type, italics, Caslon ,sans serif, Egyptian, gill sans , Helvetica last but not least Pixel type . I did not know that there was so many people who made typography!

When I was watching the video I  realized  that in the olden days people did not have all of the computers , phones and tablets. they had to write letters by hand.

I also I learned that there is  modern, old style and transitional styles of type.

 

Here is the video we watched:

Sunflower

I am in the wonderful Heathcote Garden in a bed of dirt

My long stem my Gold pedals my brown seeds and my green leaves

 

I am a Sunflower

 

I am melting in the bright Sun with a Fall breeze

Next to me are the big plump carrots

 

I am a Sunflower

 

My friends are here, the buzzing bees and the butterflies

A month ago I was as short as a stump but as bright as the sun

 

I am a Sunflower

 

A month from now I will wilt and soon die

 

I am a Sunflower
