Mural group planning for the next taniwha mural for the school.

It's challenging trying to get the design you want. I like designing the background and am thinking how to create a sea. William

Blending the right colours together is hard but fun at the same time. Te Pouritanga

We enjoy the painting of the final mural. Abbey

It's hard to make the taniwha stand out: you have to use darks and lights and brighter colours. Braxton

I like blending with the pastels and etching my designs in. Sophie

I like doing the eyes. There are lots of different colours in eyes and you can make them scary. Frankie

I like the faces because they look like a pukana face! Wiremu

 

Today we used chalk and counters to find fractions of sets. Olive says she likes it because we got to draw on the carpet! She discovered using times tables was the fastest way to do this.

 

Bling Bling is cool as! I like the painting. It glows in the dark and it is a fun activity. It teaches me how to draw and paint. I like the painting the most because when you do it you concentrate on it and it gets easier. By Whare
