Writing Prompt: The Cheat; Write an epilogue from Katie and Sarah's perspective. Review the book and master their unique writing styles to present the day of Jake's return.

Sarah: 
It feels as if everything has changed,
Our lives have rearranged. 
I've come back,
But it still feels so blank 
I wonder when it will all be the same 
Well at least, I got rid of the blame. 

With the help of my friends and Jake telling the truth I came back to school happily and everything is alright. I have learned my mistakes and making sure not to repeat them again. Things are a bit rough as of now, but hopefully they'll get better as the year goes on. At least I'm glad to have all my friends back. 

Katie:
I am really happy my best friend Sarah is back. I don't know what's going to happen..
A) Is she going to get Along with everyone?
B) Are they going to get along with her?
C) Is everything going to be back to normal?
Well whatever happens, she is my best friend and I will support her till the end. We've all learned an important lesson that we won't ever forget, and it will help us throughout life.

Silhouette Printing for Art!

Another amazing project for Art!! Making silhouette prints!

Materials: Paper, Paint, Exacto Knife, Cardboard, Heavy books(or any other heavy objects)

Steps on how to make silhouette prints:

1- Choose a easy picture that can be cut out on cardboard. I used a duck as my silhouette print, however I had many other drawing options. 

2- Trace it out on paper and then draw it on cardboard.

3- Cut out the drawing from the cardboard.

4- Choose a colour and paint the drawing that's cut out from the cardboard. 

5- Then, place the drawing on paper and put heavy objects on the paper to get a good print for 2-5 minutes. 

6- After, take off the books/heavy objects and carefully take the drawing off from the paper. 



7- You just made a silhouette print!!!
To make more prints, repeat the steps.
