Watercolors at Summer Camp

This summer I am going to Middlesex County College. I am not going to school there, just for camp. You know, I’m only a 3rd grader.
 
I have Water Colors this week. I have learned many techniques. Some of them are: Flat, Graded, Two Graded, Three Graded etc., Resist, and Wet On Wet. I also learnt about Perspective.
 
My favorite is resist. You have to draw something with crayon. Then, if you paint over it, you can still see the crayon! You can make an invisible ink with it. All you have to do is draw something with a white crayon and paint over it. Then, you’ll see where you drew with crayon.
 
Even though Water Colors is fun, I wish I was a better painter. In case you were wondering, I am not too sure if this should be in my Cool Lane. This one would be kind of on the side walk next to my Cool Lane. You know what I mean?

The Clone Chronicles #1 Popular Clone


Title: The Clone Chronicles #1 Popular Clone by M.E. Castle

Why I Started to Read This Book: I went to the library and found this really cool book. But guess what? It was the 2nd book in the series! I wanted to read the series so I reserved the first book and I read it.

What is it About? It’s about a really smart creative kid named Fisher. He has a flying pig named FP (which stands for Flying Pig). He makes a clone which he calls "Two". They all have to fight evil Dr.X.
 
What Did I Like About This Book? EVERYTHING!!!!! If I could clone myself like Fisher I'd make him do my homework and ask him to clean up my room. Unlike Fisher, I like school. He has bullies in school which he calls Vikings. There are no bullies allowed in my school.

What Didn’t I Like About This Book?

Does This Belong On My Cool Lane Or Not? DEFINITELY
