SLJ Week 1 Activity 4

 LI: to make insect art using plant life.

Inspired by art creations by Raku Inoue we went outside and collected leaves, twigs, and other plant debris to create our own insect images. I found it quite hard to make this because I had to try and make the shapes out of the leaves and twigs I got from outside.I enjoyed this task because I got to learn the shape of the insect I created. I made a dragonfly for this task.Three facts I found about the dragonfly is
  • Dragonflies don't sting and don't bite people, they have been around the world for about 3000 years, and 
  • People in Indonesia like to eat them for a snack.

    My name is Renee and I’m from the Summer Learning Journey Team. Ka pai for creating this awesome dragonfly out of nature. In particular, I really like the textured plant that you used for the antennae - it looks really realistic to me. Do you have a favourite insect? I like praying mantis because I think they look like creatures from outer space. I also like ladybugs because I like the colours and patterns on their wings.

    I also really like how you have included some interesting facts about dragonflies in your post - this was so interesting to me, I had no idea that they have existed for 3,000 years - that is amazing! Where did you learn these facts about the dragonfly?

    Ngā mihi nui and keep up the excellent mahi - I can’t wait to see your other posts over the summer.
