Tapa Design for the Art Exhibition

Whole Class Reflection – Art

Learning: “I learnt how to draw patterns.”   “I learnt to not put too much dye on the cotton bud.”.  “I learnt about tapa from Samoa, Tonga and the Cook Islands.”

Tricky: “Drawing some patterns was tricky.”  “The dying – had to be very careful.” “Keeping the vivid on the pencil lines.”

Proud: “The dye looked beautiful and I was proud of that.”   “I was proud of my patterns.”

Help: “I needed help to dye some parts of the panels, drawing over the pencil lines with vivid, putting the right cotton bud in the right container, knowing about different patterns.”

Next: “I want to learn more patterns.”   “I want to know more about the Cook Islands, Tonga and tapa.”  “I want to use vivids more in the classroom.”  “I want to learn more about drawing.”

I am learning to write my idea in a sentence that makes sense.

"I am good at sounding out the words, and I am good at spelling words.  Sometimes my writing doesn't make sense.  Mrs Wyatt helps me with my writing."

I am learning to use chunking to decode new words.

"I am finding the letters to make a word. It was hard because I couldn't find the letters easily.  I did it all by myself.  I felt happy when I was finished."

I am learning the patterns for numbers 1-5 are recognised instantly.

"I liked doing the missing numbers, because they were all easy for me.  I counted the beans, and my fingers."
