SLJ Week 1 Activity 5

LI: To create a kowhaiwhai pattern to represent summer 



Today I learnt that when it is very hot and the air is shimmering Tānerore performs the haka for his mother, Hine-Raumati. This happens in summer as the land heats up. Our challenge was to think about this while we designed our own kowhaiwhai pattern to represent summer. My pattern is like the rainbow because it has the eight colours of the rainbow. I found this activity fun because I got to be creative and got to have fun at the same time.

  1. Bonjour Afatia!

    I really enjoyed reading your blurb about Tanerore today. I like how you explained the story behind your kowhaiwhai pattern as it would be very helpful for the readers to know more about the topic. The dark background and the bright colours in your design makes it look more eye catchy and stand out. Did you know the meaning of any of these before searching them up?

    You were very creative!

  2. Kia ora Afatia,

    I love your choice of using different colours to create a rainbow! This does remind me of summer!

    I’m so glad you enjoyed the activity and got to be creative.

    I love any chance to be creative! What creative things do you like doing?

    Keep up the good work!

    Mā te wā,

    Charlotte
