What are scissors
Today and yesterday we had to make a poem about how scissors work. first we
had to plan and then do a quick write so we could get it done then we got told
to post it on our blog.
I hope you enjoy
When I Use The Scissors I see the top of the scissors move so they can cut the paper the way
I want it to cut.
I want it to cut.
I hear the sound of paper or cardboard cutting in half as I cut along.
I can Smell the air as I cut along the paper.
I can Feel the handles as they move while I move my fingers and thumb.
I can taste my breath because I am focusing very hard so i can get the line straight.
I am thinking I know I can make this line straight, I can do this.
In scissors There are…
- 2 handle grips
- 2 Blades to cut the object that you are cutting.
- 1 bolt to hold everything together
When You use scissors you put your four fingers in the gap for the first handle to move the first blade.
Stick your thumb in the other gap in the handle to move the second blade.
Stick your thumb in the other gap in the handle to move the second blade.
When I hold scissors i have my four fingers in the bigger hold in a handle and my thumb in the circle
in the other handle that my fingers aren't in.
in the other handle that my fingers aren't in.
If you are ever walking with scissors you must hold the blades so if you fall they don’t stab your eye

Visual Arts-Tattoo
For the past four weeks in visual arts, we have been learning how to make tattoo that mean something to us. I made a tattoo the has my last name linked and a bold rectangle under it, to make it stand out.
The thing that was easy was deciding what to do.
The Hardest thing to do was drawing it.
My Tattoo
My Tattoo Represents me because my last name is Lidgett.
I Made My Name Linked Because It is probably My favorite Way To Write. I have a Bold Rectangle under My Name because it Looks Nice.
I chose this tattoo because it means a lot to me.

Feeling Poems
This Week For Writing we have been writing feeling poems. My First Feeling was Energetically Then Our Principal gave us a challenge, and I chose to take it. So I had to do the opposite feeling to Energetically so it was lazy.
Energetically
Energetically makes the children at the beach really hypo,
Then the kids will fall asleep.
Energetically looks like the adults are tired,
Because of all the hypo children.
Energetically sounds like kids laughing to jokes,
As Their friends tell them jokes.
Energetically tastes like the laughter burning my though,
As laugh to hard.
Energetically feels like friends grabbing your shoulder to stay balanced,
Before they fall over .
Energetically smells like happiness,
As we all laugh to much.
Laziness
Lazy Is the feeling you are if you are just laying in bed,
Doing nothing.
Lazy looks like laying around not doing a single thing,
While everyone else does it for you.
Lazy sounds like footsteps,
From of people running to get the thing’s you want.
Lazy Feels like everyone doing something,
Except yourself.
Lazy Tastes like freeness,
Because your not doing what everyone else is doing for you.
