Brightening Our Classroom

Balloon Fun

When it was my turn I started off on a testing paper. The first decoration I did was some dabbing.

Then I went onto my real painting. My first decoration was a swirl.  We had to use primary colours. I started off with blue. Then the next day I did yellow and red. It’s really cool how you can paint with the balloons. After I did some single colours I mixed the two colours together. You start with one colour and you go all over the edges. After you do the painting you stick a weka on. It is really fun.

Our class Weka did placemats for our desks. We had to swirl our balloons in paint then we did more swirling, swirling, swirling and swirling.

 “Pretty patterns,” I thought as I dabbed some more paint on my placemat. I watched the blue paint swirl. Soon everyone else had to have their turn. The next day I used two colours. They were red and blue. It made more patterns. We used a balloon to paint the placemats. I washed my balloon and chose two other colours. They were blue and yellow so when I made more patterns it turned out sort of green. I smudged the paint, pressed and turned the paint and dabbed the paint. It made so many lovely patterns on the placemat.
