My reaction to the first day was great it was fun and it let your creativity shine. Every activity we did I liked. I can't wait to come back.
Day 2-
Narrative: Why? I never give up something once I start it and I always
put my heart to whatever I do. I also never make choices that effect something I
have dedicated my time to.
Day 2-
Grace’s value
report card
Honesty B
Narrative: Why? I am not always truthful.
I am still working on it and getting better. But I still need a little more work.
Confidence B
Narrative: Why? I try to be
confident in whatever I do like basketball, softball, singing and acting but
sometimes I get so down that my confidence goes down. But I am working on this
and to me it’s almost an A but it needs a tiny bit of work still.
Dedication A
Narrative: Why? I never give up something once I start it and I always
put my heart to whatever I do. I also never make choices that effect something I
have dedicated my time to.
Grace’s credo
poem
I believe in the effect of music on people
The importance of family
The strength people have in hard times
The hope for this world to become a better place
The positive effects people can give us
Patience, confidence, love
But the belief of people being able to judge people they don’t even
know is terrible
I believe in the creativity of the mind
I believe in courage and confidence for all
I believe happiness will come in dark times
Peace, love, delight
And I believe in the people who can make a little thing seem so
much better, people who light up in the darkness, and can make the world a
better place

I thought day 3 was really fun. I really liked the sidewalk chalk. I hope a lot of people read our quotes. we also did the "I am" poem. I think I am getting a lot better at poems with the creativity part. we also listened to a "This I Believe" essay from a 12 year old girl who got chosen for her essay to be on a radio and it was a good story. Mrs. White also showed us one of her picture collages and it gave me so many ideas for my picture collage. I can't wait to get started.

I am looking
out the window of life and I see…
Love
I hear my husband saying “I love you”
I feel my dogs tongue against my face
I hear my baby crying for me
I see my daughter with her grandma baking cookies
I see my son playing with grandpa and his trains
I feel god’s hand on me guiding my life
I feel all the love
I have in my life while I am looking out the window of life

We did two poems and I kind of like doing poems now I like to see what it turns out in the end. We also created a kind of rough draft for our picture collage and I still need to collect some photos but it was really fun doing our rough draft. I also hope that there will be bigger canvas's in the price range at Michaels because when I go home and collect everything else I pretty sure I'm going to need more room if I am going to put everything on there, but if we can't find a bigger one I will be alright with the size we have right now and could probably figure something out so I could fit all my stuff on that size. I had a lot of fun today I can't wait to come back Monday!

Day 5
Morning thoughts
Today I am thinking a lot about my collaging and I can't wait to get started. I have collected a lot more stuff so I need to edit my rough draft some but I really can't wait to get started on the real canvas!
Reflection
Today was AWESOME I loved working on my collage. I couldn't wait to work on it this morning and now I can't wait to work on it tomorrow. I hope we do this Wednesday too. I am only going to do 1 canvas and I am going to put my leftover stuff on the back. After this class I know I am going to be making a lot of picture collages. My canvas has a polka dot design and around the canvas are jewels and pom poms. I also started on my baby carriage design I am almost finished with adding the beads and I finished the picture on it but I have not put anything on my canvas yet I want to make sure it dries real good. I still have a lot of stuff today but I know I am going to finish it. Today was awesome. I can't wait to come back tomorrow!
Day 6
Morning thoughts
I had a lot more stuff and I couldn't fit it all on the front of the canvas so I decided the sports that I used to do will go on the back of the canvas.
Reaction
Today was awesome once again I have gotten a lot done. I still need to get the rest of the beads and crafty stuff like that still on the front. My goal is to finish that tomorrow and try to start on the back. I hope I finish by Thursday.

Basically I just can't wait to start working on my canvas. I want to finish all my decorations around my picture.

This I Believe
Photo collage
This is my photo collage. I tried to put all the values that are
important to me in my photo collage like creativity, dedication, patience, hope
and responsibility. To me all my important values make up love and I think love
was the value that stood out the most on my collage. On the front of my canvas I
put softball and basketball stuff to show my love for these sports and my
dedication. I put pictures of some of my dogs I have right now and used to have
because I love them even if they are gone. I have a picture of me as a hyena in
one of my school plays because I love to act and sing. I have a baby carriage
because I am going to have a little brother soon and I also put one of the
ultrasound pictures of him on the carriage. I put a picture of me graduating
preschool to show dedication and I also put my science fair medal on there to
show dedication. On the back of my canvas I have some soccer pictures. I didn’t
want to put them on the front because I don’t play soccer anymore but I still
want to remember me playing it. I also have swim pictures and ribbons I have
won from swimming because I put them on the back for the same reason I put my
soccer pictures on the back. Last on the back I have some pictures of me and my
family members I wanted them to be on the front but there was no room so I put the
pictures on the back. Also I added a little picture frame around every picture
to show creativity. That is my photo collage.
