PICASSO ROCKS

Hola my friends! Guess what we did at Enrich@ILT today? You don't know? Well, let me tell you. We did Abstract art with Madame Katie where we learnt how to do a Pablo Picasso portrait which is a painting of someone's face.

I did a portrait of Reina and she did a portrait of  me. It was hard because we had to draw a figure eight inside of the face, a rectangle also inside the face, then once we finished that we outlined the pencil lines in black vivid.  Then we had to rub out the pencil lines with rubbers that did not rub out.
Next week we get to colour the portrait in with felt tip pens instead of paint.

Bye 

PS. Abstract means bright and colourful and it doesn't have to make any sense.

Stressed out

OK do you want to learn about how to deal with STRESS? Well I'm here with "Dr" Nicola who talked to some pupils at Enrich@ILT about the word stress and how to deal with it.
First of all,  take a deep breath about ten times - it actually helps your chest muscles.

Second of all it's all right to cry! There is nothing bad about crying, Nicola said - just let it all out and go to your peaceful place. For example hide out in your bedroom. My peaceful place is the Elles road dog park

I hope you have learnt something about how to deal with STRESS.
