Watercolor is amazing!  Do you like to water color? Watercolor is the most hardest our art project you can do. Watercolor can be challenging, it is a form of skills. When you water color you need technique skill and you also needs to be listening for instructions when you want a video on how to watercolor. If you like to watercolor and you should do it very often so you can improve your skills and technique. Watercolor might look simple but it’s not. Some paintings can be very simple though.

January 25- January 29 a very special substitute teacher that loves art came to our classroom each day this week. We learned how to watercolor the real way instead of just slabbing paint on a expensive and special watercolor paper. I learned you can make happy mistakes, for example: If you mess up on a painting or drawing just turn it into something that makes you feel good about yourself.

What do you draw or paint to make yourself feel better?

I had heard that Paris is so beautiful and amazing. I wanted to visit Paris when I was about3-6 years old. My whole family wants to see the Eiffel Tower and explore the

whole city of Paris. My favorite place I would like to go is to the Taj Mahal in India, but I could not  get a picture for it. My second favorite place that I want to go is the Eiffel Tower in Paris in France.

The Eiffel Tower represents how strong and  brave their country and city is. The Eiffel Tower light up at night in Paris. I really want to go to Paris!🗼

Puppies and dogs are so cute! Watching this video you might think one is cute, but another one is not. I really want a dog, but I know I shouldn’t.

Martin Luther King’s “I have a dream” speech is important for the whole world. This shout out from him will never stop spreading around the world. Everybody needs to know his dream about dark browns not being treated unfairly and he hopes that his kids will not be bullied by the whites.
