Strike Performance:

I could feel the vibration underneath my feet as they were hitting very hard on the drums. It was very interesting to feel the vibration of the drums underneath me. I could feel everyone really like the performance because everyone was whispering about how much it was so cool.

I could see the sweat dripping on the performers faces and they were hitting the drums as hard as they could to get the sound out. The music they were creating was very interesting and entertaining. I could see everyone was super happy and enjoying it because they were all clapping along to the beat.

I could also see the smiles on everyone's facings as they were listening to them perform. I was very loud but that was kind of the point. I was very interesting and fun and you could see how hard and much they practice to get the performance perfect. And in my opinion it was perfect.

I could tell that all the performers really love music and very into their drums. Overall it was totally awesome and so entertaining and they had the school drooling over them.

Breakers

Yesterday I went to a restaurant for dinner called Breakers It was delicious. I went with my family . And that includes my mum, dad, sister, and cousin. We all were very hungry because it was seven thirty and we normally eat dinner at six. We all just wanted to eat. We finally got there and ordered our food. I got a chicken wrap and some fries and also a nice cold glass of Fanta. Then we all just sat and talked for a while until our food came. Then finally our food came it looked and smelt great. I ate it up all very fast. Next it was all gone, I ate a big bowl of fries and a big chicken wrap in about 10 minutes. I was hungry! My mum was very surprised. She said I had never ate so fast in my life. I think that was definitely true! A few minutes later we had all finished and it was time for dessert. I ate that.

Self Portrait 2017

We used an art technique called cross-hatching to create our self portrait this year. This technique creates more of a 3d effect which is what we were wanting rather than just coloring ourselves in. Miss O'B had an A3 black and white photo of us. First we had to color our pupil, iris and cornea with appropriate colors. We then used 'people crayons' which are made with skin tone colors. Using the two closest colors to our skin tone, we cross hatched our face starting at our forehead and moving down to our neck. The hardest part was our nose.  We then colored our hair, completed our school uniform and blocked out the background in a vibrant pastel color so our faces stood out. So what do you think of my self portrait?
