    Welcome to Art for this term.  Mrs Newbold will be teaching 7M1 and I will be working with 7M2.  Our context this term is based around Myths and Legends so you will be working towards creating artworks to display. in the Whanau on a Myth or Legend of your choice.

    This week you need to be organised with the correct equipment for each class.  You must have a Visual Diary to draw and write in, bring a pencil case and your device to each session.  You should have your own 6B pencil, rubber, ruler and black or blue pen to use.

    Below is a chart of the expectations we set in the art department to ensure everyone has a good time.

    Learning Intention

    Action: To Do

    Success Criteria

    We are investigating and researching the way mathematical concepts such as symmetry can be used in cultural artworks


    Maori culture uses mathematical concepts a lot in their kowhaiwhai patterns


    The carved figures or pou are also often quite symmetrical in their features.



    • Whakamana


    Investigate a variety of images and look for symmetrical patterns.


    Practise drawing symmetrical patterns


    Imagine what the head of a Maori God would look like and practise drawing it, making sure that the facial features are symmetrical

    Your Visual Art diary should have examples of symmetrical patterns from other cultures…. Try to find at least three cultures with patterned art that shows symmetry being used


    Imagine one of the Maori Gods.  Draw a picture of their face and make sure that the features on the face are symmetrical.


    Free drawing…. At the BACK of your book draw whatever you like.

    Hi from Mr Choong

    Welcome to your term of Visual Art and your last rotation of arts subjects for the year.  It's funny to be starting the course from home but we have some fun things for you to try during this term and pretty much all of them can be done from home.

    The first thing you need to organise is a book of sorts called a Visual Diary to put all of your drawings and thinking in.  I don't mind if it's scrap paper that you can keep together somehow or you might have a drawing book that you got at the beginning of the year in your stationery pack?  You also need a pencil and a pen to draw with.  If you have any other sorts of colouring pens and pencils that might be useful but not essential.

    The examples below should be helpful to get you started.
