Visual Art - Term 3

We looked at koru and kowhaiwhai patterns in picture books and practiced drawing them.

Then we visited the art gallery and learned more about Māori motifs.  

We created an artwork there by cutting out the shapes we saw and overlapping them.

We were inspired by the work of Reuben Paterson and created our own glitter art.

Social Science

We wrote about who is in our family, what we do together, what we like to eat, celebrations and jobs.

We created a poster and learned about the similarities and differences of families in our class.
