My writing

                                                                My family

The important thing about my family is that they are my family and I love them. They work hard to get food and water. They keep me and my sister safe. They get the money for the device's and the house , cars, school, heater's and more. but the important thing about my family is that they are my family and I love them.

WALT: communicate a message.

Description: We have been participating in 3 different workshops around colour, compositions and fonts.  We put these skills to use in a poster sharing our knowledge about Te Reo Maori.

Why? We have noticed that our posters are too cluttered and do not communicate a  message well.

Task: Make a poster about Te Reo Maori.

Criteria:

Message: My message is clear and purposeful.  Everything that is on my poster relates to my message. 

Composition:  My poster is balanced. 

Font:  My font is clear, readable and suits the message.

Colour:  I have used 2-3 colours that are complementary.  My background choice makes the text pop!

Accuracy:  All of the words on my poster are spelt correctly.

Evaluation:

What are you most proud of and why? 

The colour because suits the words.

What challenged you the most and why?

Time limit because I was trying to think what I should put on it.

Next time, what is a goal you can work towards?

Going faster and working on it more.

Feedback/Feedforward:

I think you could improve on making the colours where the poster is a little bit different to each other.

But I liked how you had it very neat in one page so you didn't have to look everywhere to read it.
