Battle of the Blankets.......



When the sun rises I could feel the coldness outside of my bed. When I got outside of my blanket I wanted to get back inside of my bed because it was so warm. After the ‘battle of the blankets’ straight away I went to go get changed into my uniform.

So then I went to mum and asked her if I could put on a singlet on. Then she replied “ok”. Then after that I put my shoes on and then ran to the car so I could be warm again. When we got into the car my mum whipped the windows and turned on the heater, it was so warm.

Yummy! Yummy! Cupcakes




“YUMMY” On Monday Me and my family went to The Warehouse and got some butterfly and dinosaur moulds. They were red and were different shapes like a butterfly, a firefly and a dinosaur T-rex. When we got home I said to my dad “Dad can we make some cupcakes with our new molds?”. Then he replied to me “Of course we can”. So then I got the ingredients for the mixture. They were:

4 cups flour
2 cups sugar
5 eggs
100 grams melted butter
½ Cup milk

After that me and my Dad started with the 4 cups of flour, then the 2 cups of sugar. Then we cracked the 5 eggs into the bowl and then the 100 grams of melted butter, then what you do after that is you pour the milk until it is smooth.

After we got all of mixture we poured it into the molds and cooked it for 200 degrees and we set the timer for 15 minutes. The cakes were ready and they came out perfectly with the pattern on it.  When they cooled down I made some black icing. I made it taste like vanilla using vanilla essence.

My Swimming Recount:-)




For two whole weeks Room Fourteen have been going swimming. When I go swimming I feel like I want to just get into the water straight away because I am a water freak. When we are swimming we have been learning how to do big strokes, kicking and holding the swimming board, stretching and tilting our heads.


When we speedily walked down to the swimming pool’s we got out of our uniform and put our togs on. We went to go have a rinse at the showers by the stream room and spa. I am in group two with my classmates and my instructor named Natalie. She is really nice because she makes us laugh and we enjoy it, but not only that she teaches us new swimming skills.

In our swimming group we did ‘Brain goggle cheek’ which is a kind of move that can be called the freestyle or anything. First of all we had to lean on our left arm, then we had to stay there for 6 seconds and then we had to put it under the water and boom there you go.

My final feelings on swimming are that I feel really good because I have a funny instructor. I also I think I am doing pretty good in my swimming because my instructor said to me, “ You are doing good on your freestyle Rave keep it up ”. I replied to her ”Thank you Natalie”.

Andy Warhol's Style of Art





Did you know that Andy Warhol was an Artist that loved to create pop art?
I am talking about an American Artist called Andy Warhol. He is a really
popular person because he drew lots of different Art and uses different
colours. He drew some good paintings, some were famous people like Marilyn Monroe and Mohammed Ali.

Andy Warhol was popular because his Art was called Pop Art. Pop Art is a style of screen printing and painting that uses bright colours. He painted popular people like Marilyn Monroe and Mohammed Ali and popular supermarket products like Tomato Soup and Coca Cola.

Andy Warhol’s art is inverting opposites colours and mixing them around. He silk screened his paintings of celebrities,dollar bills and tomato soup cans and also Coca Cola bottles. In Andy Warhol’s paintings he used bold outlines and simple strong shapes when he screen printed his pictures of celebrities. His art looks like colours but opposites so if it is on the image you painted you can’t use the same colours on the other image.

What do I think about Andy Warhol’s Art? I think it is pretty good especially his art of Marilyn Monroe and Muhammad Ali when he mixed around the colours. My Favourite art piece of Andy Warhol’s Art is the Michael Jackson art, because I like the colours he used in the background and his face are cool. He is a cool artist.
