I'm back!!

Welcome back!!!!

I didn't get enough time for a post last week. I'm here now!  We have got a new teacher called Paul.  I can't wait to get my passion project up and running. Yes, thats right, I'm doing pottery again.  Today we did brain boosters.  I was doing wuzzles (word puzzles) with Nicola this time. We did it last week to.  It was super hard.  I got 3/12, and those were all the ones that Nicola gave clues for!  Next we did thinking keys.  I got to do it with Paul.  We got to do the invention key.  I can't wait to get my clay pots home!

Fortune Dice

  To-clay I still remember what Jenny told me last week (she said to keep it secret but here's a clue: It was about my affective study!)

  Also, I did some clay (as always).  This week, I made a fortune dice.  You ask a question, and then you roll.  The things on my dice says stuff like keep dreaming, forget it, do it, roll again and other stuff like that.

  I can't wait for writing 201 (101 for me!)  I look at all the other stories and I think, if I entered the MADE awards I would have some competition.

 
Merry Christmas (soon!)                                            (Alexander the

I got revenge

To-clay I just finished my affective study.  It looks so awesome now and plus I've added heaps of these on-click transitions.  I played it a couple of times so I could see the wonder that is my keynote.

  I have joined Nicola's writing 201 group for the patterns workshop.  Even though I haven't been in it before she said she could have some newbies.  So I've joined.  The writing was my first choice and theirs a lot of girls.

Plus, I got revenge. (on my sister, but that's a secret!)  Bye!

Digital Citizenship

To-clay I did some pottery as always.  I made a gift to give my teacher for the end of the year.  I also made a cute love heart shaped bowl with an arrow in the heart lid.  I think I will use it for my earrings.

  I also learnt about digital citizenship.  On simple terms, it's internet safety.  I was with Nicola's group.  I found out that your fingerprint starts even before you are born.  Also that it continues even when your dead.  Your fingerprint starts and ends way before and after your lifetime.  It is not safe to over-share, or anything else that will give you a bad reputation.

Bye!

Underglaze for my pots of clay!

Today I underglazed my pots.  Especially the rock.  Lots of people called it painting.  Even the ones doing clay!  In Term 3 people started realising that pottery was really cool.  So their getting Marie in to help next week.  A chance to get my pots kilned!!

Today I also did some more abstract art with Katie.  Today, we did masking tape art, which helps create a pattern of shapes and lines.  Here is a photo of me and my art:

The jug kettle

To-clay I was back on the potters wheel.  I made a jug kettle. The handle was like a kettles but it kind of collapsed.  So Darryn fixed it.  He put part of an coloured ice-cream stick under it to keep it from collapsing.  The jug part of it was because it didn't have a lid.  Well, jugs do have lids but my terrific ones don't.  I absolutely cannot wait till art.  For affective study I'm doing Alexander the Great.  I've got heaps of information.  I'm going to transfer the information to Pages... Somehow.  Here is the coin with his FACE!!!

A Cat

To-clay I made some more masterpieces.  A cat and a shark fin.  The cat was my favourite.  With Madison's bunny is in the competition, the bunny is an obvious winner.  I also made another rock and soon I'm going to see what one to underglaze.  Probably the second one.  Oh, and if you don't know, the inspiration I got for clay was from ancient Greece and Egypt.

Bye!  See you Term 4!!!
