Recently in Ahuriri...
We read the story and watched a clip from You Tube about the Maori legend "How Maui Slowed the Sun"
We looked carefully at the expression, koru patterns and colours that the illustrator used to draw the sun.
We experimented with vivid markers and pastel crayons to try and get bright colours and a heavy covering on our paper plates.
We learned to use a pencil to curl strips of paper for the rays.
These are now display in our Whanau space.
What a great way to brighten up our winter days!
These look great! I'm going to try making them with my students next Monday! :) Thanks for the idea!
