Brightening Our Room

Placemat Days “Have you heard the story of the Pied Piper,” said Mrs Bryant quietly. “No, I haven’t actually,” said I. “Well it’s about time you learnt it,” said Mrs Bryant in a shocked voice. But before I tell you that story, I have to tell you this story. Everyone on the mat bunched together, ready to listen to Mrs Bryant. “Today we will be making placemats from crepe paper,” said Mrs Bryant. Yeeesss!!! hissed the class. Firstly we had to choose a colour of crepe paper, I chose blue and red. Secondly we placed crepe paper on our A2 piece of paper to get the picture of what we wanted. “We’re going to use the magic brew,” said Mrs Bryant. “What is the magic brew?” said part of the class. “I think it’s vinegar,” said Margeaux. “Correct,” said Mrs Bryant. “Right what we’re going to do is put the magic brew over the crepe paper, so the brew will go through on to your paper!” said Mrs Bryant. Lawson, my friend, came over and looked at mine. “It’s good,” said Lawson. “Thank you,” said I. Once we finished the bell rang. “We will carry on with this tomorrow.” The next day we went onto the ipad to print 2013 for our placemat. We had to make it really big so it could be able to be seen from a distance. When nearly everyone was done we put hoiho pictures onto our placemat. I chose a small penguin, medium and large. I thought it was fun and exciting. Jacob
