Today I went outside again. I was working with Mevla. She was doing photography so she took pictures of me doing gymnastics.It was a win win for both of us because those are our passions and it was fun finding different poses and skills. Next week I am going to do gymnastics for the last time and after that I am going to do milk shakes. I am going to test with peanut butter and chocolate to see if I can make a milk shake that no one can resist.
Today I am going to venture outside and work on different type of things on the bars and beams. I am extremely excited that it is warm enough to go out side an be free from the cramped small space that i have in the school. Today my camera girl is Kyra. In her movie I am Fluffy the human cat. I was so close to grabbing my foot and the handstand is called a staggered handstand and the thing on the bar is not actually a skill. Today I was creating different fun combos with fun things included. I stretched before and then I began. Here are pictures and videos of me stretching. Three pictures are for preparation for splits and the forth one is pancake stretch. My Genius Hour project was making infinity scarves for friends and family. I choose this project because I LOVE sewing and I wanted to give people gifts.
At the beginning I was wondering if I should bring my sewing machine. I decided i was going to so week 2 after preparation I was sewing! I started with a pink fluffy scarf for my friend. Then I made multiple more. I started to make a website where people could pay for my scarfs and I soon started. I kept trying to finish but I realized I should probably spend most of my time on sewing. It soon became end of round one. I used fabric and other types of unused scraps of fabric. I did not get any help from anyone but my sewing machine. My end product was many scarves! A teacher actually asked me to make her two one for her sister and one for her ( Cubs fabric of course)! Of course I also gave out the others for free. Some problems I faced were running out of thread or fabric. Another thing that scared me at the very beginning I was scared that I would not have anywhere to set up my sewing machine. My website was also a fail. If I were to do this project again i would make sure i finished that website and I had all of the proper supplies. For my next Genius hour project I want to do something with gymnastics. I was thinking correcting form in back handsprings (if I’m allowed to even do a back handspring). That is the end I hope you enjoy. I am excited to create my first blog starting with this first sentence. This blog is mainly for genius hour and for genius hour I am sewing infinity scarfs. Since this season is cold i am giving out my infinity scarfs for free ( to help people to keep warm of course)! Enjoy me first blog and have a nice day! Cats!
