Term 3 Week 5

Amazing African Animal Art

We have had learned lots about African animals from making observations and gathering information from pictures, books and youtube videos. Te Kakano students are becoming more observant and notice detail. They have also asked some great questions which have led to further investigation. 

We have been learning to notice and describe patterns in our environment. Some curious students noticed that many African animals have patterns on their skin and birds have feather patterns. We are also learning about symmetry which has helped us when creating art works of animals.

We applied symmetry and patterning with colour to make these lions and ostriches.
