My dad cooking on the barbecue

I love to watch my dad cooking meet on the barbecue. My dad likes me to help him with the barbecue. Bringing empty plates in and taking plates out full of good. When my dad ignites the barbecue and spreads the oil on it starts to spit and sizzle and fly on my skin, it stings for a second then the flame dies out and the pain goes away. He then flops the meet on the barbecue with the spatula and the spit and sizzle come back but dies away quickly. Once the meet  is cooked in the middle dad will turn the barbecue off and plate up. "This will be delicious " dad says with a smile on his face. "It smells really good" i say "bet it taste better then it smells" mum said. We all sit down and compliment dad as we eat the delicious meet my dad has cooked. "I wish i could cook as good as you can on the barbecue " i said.

Tarnes post

Hi class how is it going. I had my grandads funeral on Tuesday it was really sad. We bought grandad home for two day so we could say our final good bye. The flys are so annoying up here. My uncle and now my anty have got engaged. There are two horses next door and me and my cousin feed them because they are so skinny. i have been doing a hour of home work a day. I helped my cousin milk cows and one pooped all down my backside. also helped feed calf's they got there horns burned off.  Before grandad died he went out for a hunt and caught a 11 pointer stag.  hope it is going well down there.

Typing Test

Here is another useful website that will improve your touch typing skills. Remember to have good posture and to set your hands up correctly on the HOME KEYS. We will use this website TYPING ONLINE to see if you've done enough for a Mallowpuff.

This week's goal: 40 wpm on home row and top row (Lesson 2 Exercise 6) with at least 90% accuracy.

Get into the habit of lining up on the HOME KEYS every time you type. Practice, practice, practice is the KEY to success! (Haha, pun intended!)

Skateboard Art

This week we have been doing art inspired by an artist. My artist that inspired me is Mark Rivard. Mark is a skateboard artist who use sharpies on plain skateboard decks and creates awesome looking skateboards. I have made a skateboard deck that I spray painted white and put a red diamond in the centre. Then I came up with a design that I liked and then sharpied it onto the deck. 

Here is his website if you would like to have a look at his artwork: http://markrivardskateboardart.com/

Ribbet

RIBBET is a photo collage tool that we could try.  Here is an example from our 'Ben Heine' sketches.

ART

I painted this picture at the school holiday program with Helena. We got the ideas from post cards and greeting cards. Using oil paints we mixed them together to create the colours we needed for the landscape.

We made an orange wash to spread over the canvas, then added on the water, sky, sand and mountains. My favourite part on the painting is the grass. To make this grass Helena gave me a brush that looked like a fan. I mixed five different types of green and yellow to make the colour of the grass that is on this picture.
