Sam’s Reflection:

My Reflection was about the colours that can match the photo. The thing that i liked was about the drawing and the painting. When i was starting this is the first place, i said to myself: “wow this is hard as!” but this was a challenging task i liked.

What did well:

I was to persevere hard by my drawing skills and to colour/paint it, i was preserving though the task. This task was not the best but, was my favorite.

Marcus’s Reflection

When I finished my project I felt proud and happy because it took a long time and was a lot of hard work and i did not know if i could complete it. It was challenging to paint the skinny rings and stay in the lines. What I did well is painting.  

What I did well is:

The best thing i have done was to painting and drawing the design on cardboard.  

What I found hard:

Cutting the cardboard because the scissors were not sharp enough and the cardboard was quite thick. I used my persevering mussels to stick to the cutting and also make it a bit easier to cut through  the cardboard.

Why I done this: I done this is because I thought  it would be good for me to make the olympic rings. I thought it would be good because I thought it would be good to have some olympic rings for new zealand.
