Since it is nearly end of the year of course that means it’s calendar art time. So Mrs Miller came up with a really cool idea for calendar art this year. It was hand print and footprint ideas, we went to uncle google to get some ideas. I chose this really cool green monster and you may notice it from Monster university.  Now I am going to tell you the steps we had to do  to make our calendar art:)

1. First step was that we had to get an A3 piece of paper and our buddy had to draw our hand print or footprint. Well to make my monster, my buddy Ella had to draw my hand except my middle finger
2. After you have done that you needed to show Mrs Miller, so if Mrs Miller thought it was good then you could get your good copy
3. Step three was you had to dye your piece of paper the color you wanted it to be. I chose a darkish blue for my background

One Week Later

After It was a week, all of room 12’s backgrounds were done, so we all just needed to get Mrs Miller to paint our hand or foot and put it on the piece of paper that we dyed. It really was ticklish for me because Mrs Miller used a really new and soft brush on my hand.  After Mrs Miller hand painted my hand green she said that it looked like I was bleeding green. It was  Monday and some people just needed to do their detail like me. I just needed to draw two trees and color them in and cut them and glue it on. But that’s not all, I needed to add an eye, mouth and two horns:) I was really proud of myself when my calendar art was finished because I put a lot of effort in it and so did Mrs Miller, so thank you Mrs Miller. One of the challenging things were to draw the trees, I found it challenging to draw the trees because I did not know if they would fit my piece of  paper and it was hard because I wanted my trees to look the same and they did.
