Ending this year off strong with a science based project with the focus of either; photosynthesis 🪴, how viruses/diseases are transmitted and spread through your body 🦠or cellular respiration.🧫
I choose to make a comic about the last one, “cellular respiration”
I choose To do my comic of cellular respiration because it was the least chosen topic in the class to create a comic about and it was also a challenge just trying to understand the concept of cellular respiration, let alone making a comic about it…
For that being my reason of wanting to create A comic about cellular respiration I think that’s a well demonstrated demonstration of “Questioning and Predicting” by demonstrations a curiosity in a new topic
But to start off every project (of course) with a mind map, showing what we knew and then to later add out new knowledge
Next, (just to add a little ✨fun✨) to our project we had the chance to design/create a wanted poster for any virus or disease.
Making sure we had all our facts straight first,
~listed with; first outbreak, symptoms, warning for no vaccine and picture~
Then was storyboarding!!
Before even starting I had no idea how I was going to integrate cellular respiration into a comic that had any sort of enjoyment, or what cellular respiration really was in the first place…
But after a lot of intensive research, using YouTube videos, websites, and Basecamp, i eventually had a solid understanding of what cellular respiration was
my original story board has a few Elements that were integrated into my finished product, but side by side my storyboard and finished product look extremely different.
And of course the last step was creating the finished product…
using the apps procreate and comic life 3 I was able to create my comic to the best of my ability
Tada!!
My finished product ⬆️ is a great demonstration of “scientific communication” my properly communicating the cellular respiration process, making sure I have at least 10 “interesting science vocabulary” and a couple “interesting” diagrams
and also a good demonstration of the curricular competency “evaluating”
And that is the last project of grade 8 🤚
bye! C u next year!
