Waitangi trip
W.A.L.T reflect on our class trip.
On Tuesday we were at Waitangi. If you don't know what Waitangi is then I will tell you right now. Waitangi is a place in paihia waitangi treaty grounds. You do walks around the waitangi and look at old staff like boats, kauri tree stamp and carvings. Then we do an codding app called scratch. And then we had something to eat.

What did you find interesting? What I found interesting is the kauri tree stamp because when Monica Sayed three kauri tree make one waka.

My geometic art
In class we were doing art. The art is called geometric art. Geometric art is an animal made with shapes and all the curved lines are turned into straight lines.
1: We had to draw or sketch a head or a whole body.
2: Then outline it with a black pen.
3: Fill the animal with shapes by using a ruler.
4: Then colour your art in.
I didn't know what to do it and it was hard to find something to draw but I did a boar.
What did you enjoy? I enjoyed drawing my boar and putting the shapes in.
What did you do well? I did well by drawing and colouring.
What can you improve on? I can improve by adding more detail in my art.
Have you done geometric art before?
