On Friday the 7th of August Room 19 were doing some Cook Island Art because it is Cook Island language week. We were doing some tivaevae art.(quilt)

The steps to make the tivaevae.



 1. First you fold the A4 paper into quarters. 

2. Then you draw petals of a flower until they reach the top.

3.You cut the petals out carefully then open it up and hopefully it will make a pattern.

4.After you do that you stick it onto a colored piece of paper.


5. Next you draw some flowers,stems and some leaves.
 

6.After that you cut your flowers,stems and leaves and glue them on to your piece of paper.

Making Poi - Maori Language Week

For Maori Language Week we have been practising Te Reo Maori in our daily conversations.  At the end of the week for art we made a poi.  It was the first time for many of the students and the first time to plait.  The class really enjoyed learning how to make a poi.  We hope to use them in a waiata soon.
