PERFECT PENGUINS
In the month of December we have been doing
lots of art! The penguin art was a fun
craft to do. We had to use the black for the background and for the middle we
had to use the white in the middle we could do a design if we wanted to and
some people made theirs as a sport and some people put a Santa hat on the
penguin and you could dress them if you wanted to. But I (Carter) dressed mine
up like what I wear every day. And I (Trystin) made a basketball one and a ref
one too. We think that everyone enjoyed it. You can even put a speech bubble
and or you can also put a sign on the penguin too.

PINE TREE ORNAMENTS
In the month of December
we did this art called pine tree ornament Art. First you pick the shape of
ornament you want and trace it on the black paper. Then you outline the
ornament in white or black oil pastel. Then you take a brown pastel to the draw
the branch, then you take a dark green and lime green pastel do to the pine
needles on the branches. Then colour in your ornament with oil pastels.

Stained Glass Trees
In the month of December we did a three step art job and it was called
stained glass trees. First you get a plain piece of paper and tissue paper and
you get wet glue and put it in a bowl or something to mix it in, then you put
in a tablespoon of water in the thing that you have the glue in then mix it.
Then you glue on tissue paper onto white paper. Then for part 2 you have to
paint a background and when you are making the background you have to make a
snow outline and then wet the rest with water but you can’t put water on the
snow or else the paint will run down it and you don’t want that because you
need the outline for the snow for the trees to go on. Then once you put on the
water you can start painting, and when you are painting you can’t go into the
outline of the snow or else you will ruin the snow. Then when we are done
painting we have to put it on the drying rack. Then for part 3 we had to trace the trees out
with tracers on the paper that we did on day 1 and we had to trace them and
then we cut them out. After we cut them out we had to make tree trunks and we
could make them curve to make them look even more realistic and then once we
liked how we placed our trees we could start gluing them and then we gave them
to Ms.Wasney. When Ms.Wasney has it she will put it in a frame then you have to
choose a wrapping paper. You can either get snowflakes, or ornaments or Santa. Then
you take it home and give it to your family.
