we have been learning about Diwali last week and diwali is a traditional indian celebration and the celebration is on the 4 November .So on the 4 November we did a pattern we ether got to draw a pattern on a piece of paper or draw it on the concrete with chalk but if we wanted to do it on the concrete we had to have at least three or two people in a group to make to more easy because it's a big thing to do it yourself.We had to look up a rangoli pattern and try to decide with your group if you want the to do the pattern or not I found it challenging to make the outline of the pattern and I enjoyed this because it was fun to design it and smudge to make the colors look like an ombre of all different colours. Can you please comment on my blog if you celebrate diwali? Here's a link to the video of how to make a rangoli And here's a link of side's about diwali

My self portrait yWe have been learning how to mix colours First we had to take a photo of yourself and get a laminating sheet and put your printed photo of yourself in the laminating sheet and you want to trace every little detail on top of the laminating sheet with a Sharpie so you can see where you want paint. once you were ready to paint you had a paint palette for each table and you got dark blue, turquoise, black, yellow, red and white And we had to make your skin colour your hair colour your eye colour and T-shirt colour with only those colours you had to stay in the Sharpie line because I wouldn't come off if you Tried to wipe it off. You had to do two coats of the same colour in the same place, so you had to make the same colour at times. It's kind of hard to get the same exact color two times. I enjoyed doing the art because I really like art and I found it challenging to make the colours I needed.

Do you think that Saint Mary's teachers are the best teachers in the world? Well, I strongly believe that Saint Mary's teachers are because they are kind, helpful and have respect for you in all different ways. There are no other teachers that could ever do the things that they do and some other teachers can even learn from them because they're very smart, helpful and fun.
They will always have your back if you're sad,happy or mad either way they will always have your back and they help you reach your highest potential in school.They will say things that will help you believe in what you believe.
They can happily help you with your work if you get stuck and they explain what you have to do very very well. They will always be nice to you and they will have a race with your classmates
they will help you if you need some more help than others and they are very FUN! Things with you and your class and they don't go home until at least 5 they even come to school on a Sunday for the next day.
And That's why i personally think saint marys teachers are the best i hope i have convinced are you that St Mary's teachers are the best
