Matariki

Hey Bloggers! Yesterday the WHOLE school got into groups to do things about Matariki. My group were making paper mache dolls. I was happy because one of my friends were in my group. I think my doll was really funny, because I gave him a pear of undies. Well, they were undies at the start, but I changed them into a nappy. At the beginning, we had to cut out the body shapes and tape them on. We weren't allowed to tape the head to the body, though because we were going to connect it with wire. After we cut and taped the dolls together, we had to put one, and only one tissue to cover the doll, and use this weird glue to make it stick on. When we had done all that, it was time for morning tea. When we had came back to the classroom, we were all shocked to find that half the dolls were missing. We were relieved to find out that they were only having a lovely holiday, in a place called the oven, where they were probably getting a lovely tan. It felt like they were taking FOREVER to come out. By the time I got mine, almost everyone had theirs done and detailed. I gave mine anime eyes and spiky hair. It's eyes were green. It had a top that showed it's belly button, and it said baby boy on it. I made it confusing by writing baby girl on it's nappy. I gave him cute little boots with laces. Here came the messy process. Paint. It had covered up all the vivid lines, all the cardboard, and sadly, all my hands. I spent a good amount of time trying to get the paint to come off. I had so much fun. Blog you later.
