bookweek05_rap *Rap Point 2*

["Wendy Chapman" <wchapman@goulburn.net.au>]

Dear Rappers,

 

This week we begin our focus on Rap Point 2.  Enjoy a close study of the pictures, firstly in these great books and then all around us in our everyday world.

 

*Rap Point 2*

 

The books we are examining have been short listed for several reasons, including their special illustrations.   Choose one picture book and examine the techniques the illustrator has used that make the book so effective. (Rap sheet 3 will guide you.)

Identify a technique the illustrator has used frequently. Send a message to the rap explaining this technique and how it has been used so effectively in this book.

Locate other examples of the use of this visual technique (in books, magazines, newspapers, advertisements, billboards or web sites etc) and in your rap message, discuss the effect of its use in other contexts.  

There are alot of interesting points to discuss here!  I'm sure you'll discover many new aspects to these great books, (and our world) and I look forward to reading your responses.

 

 

Send your messages to the rap email address:

bookweek05_rap@list.schools.nsw.edu.au

 

 

Happy rapping!

 

Mrs Chapman

(Book Week Rap Coordinator)
