We were split up in to 4 groups. The first group went then the second and the third went but not together. Then the fourth group went and we were in the fourth group. First Mr. Wilson told us what to do. Then he came around and put some black ink on our tiles and then he told us to roll it out on the tile. He gave us a lolly stick which had a diagonal edge. We had to practice drawing thin and thick lines with the diagonal edge. We put a piece of paper on the tile and rubbed it with our hand. Then we peeled it off and we had a print of our drawing. We had to pair up and put our drawings back to back then Mr. Wilson hung them up to dry. Mr. Wilson came round with some more ink and we rolled it out again. He told us to draw zigzag and wiggley lines. Then we printed it out on material and after we printed it he said that we could dye it with bright colours. We are now looking for someone to sew them together. We are going to hang them on the stairs next to the music room.
