Kayaks was one of my favourite things I did at camp. I was scared the first time because I have  never been kayaking before.
Here is picture of me wrapped in my towel out of the river because the river is freezing!

This is me coming out of the crazy slide. This was one of my favorite slides because it is really scary but at the same time it's fun:)

Success Criteria
  • Take our time, show patience (GRIT)
  • Plan our piece of artwork
  • Take care with the painting and dyeing
  • Research for our inspiration
  • Explain the steps you took to make your artwork on your blog
  • How do you feel about your artwork?  
  • What was  a challenge?

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.

Passion Blog - Nail Art With Steps

Do you remember when I did a passion blog and I told you that I had two passions and they were quite girly but they were hairstyles and nail art.   Mrs Miller is so kind that she gave everyone another chance to do a passion blog again, so thank you Mrs Miller.   Today I will be sharing my passion which is nail art - step by step.
  1. First step is to get an aqua green and paint it on your thumb and little finger which is of course is your last finger.
  2. Then for your second finger you need a nice pink, not that dark and not that light just perfect.
  3. For your middle finger and 3rd finger you need to paint it white, let it dry because we are going to put on some detail.
  4. For your thumb, last finger and second finger you need to get a thin nail polish brush and dip in black nail polish and put a little dot on your fingers that you are supposed to do
  5. For your middle finger and and 3rd finger that you have painted white you will need to do this leopard type of design, it will be hard, so practice on a piece of paper. 
  6. First on your middle finger you will need to put 5 green spots on the bottom and then kind of do brackets around them with black nail polish if you don't know what brackets are - here they are ( )
  7. Now for step 7, our last lucky step, on your 3rd finger do the exactly same but you just need to put 5 pink spots on your 3rd finger and brackets just like you did for your middle finger
Thanks for reading my blog, and If you try my nail art out, please tel me or comment down below. By the way I have tried this nail art and It was awesome and I was proud of myself :)
This is the nail art  we are trying to do :)

My Passion Blog Term 3 Week 10

This week Mrs Miller said that we can do our own choice passion blog and I was really excited about this to share what my passion is. Well my passion actually is quite girly - I have got two passions. 
Number one is making hairstyles and number two is doing nail art. But I actually like making hairstyles more so I will give you step by steps how to do a fishtail braid, this is my favorite hairstyle to do in the summer time.
  1. Number one is to put your hair into a high ponytail.
  2. Then put your hair into two sections.
  3. Now get the right piece and cross it over the left section.
  4. Then get the left piece and and cross it over the right section.
  5. Then get the right piece again and cross it over the left section. 
  6. Then get the left section and cross it over the right section.
  7. Keep on doing it when you want to stop and put your hair tie on.
  8. Its a really easy hairstyle but it looks really difficult
So now your fishtail braid is done,thanks if you comment:)
