Moko Ika Hikuwaru is a taniwha that has 8 tails. We drew what we think it would look like without tracing or copying any other designs and we also used our own prior knowledge on what designs to draw for our taniwha. We made our taniwha have four flamming red eyes and a wrinkly body leading to his 8 tails.
I found this activity fun because I got to work one of the best aritst in class and used our imaginations to complete this task.
LI: To gather statistics and protect the Kauri Tree from getting the Kauri Disease.
The following week after camp we did a research about the Kauri Dieback. Then we created a DLO about the Kauri Disease on how we can prevent it from destroying our nature. Though we can do things such as… to stop the disease from killing our tree.
I found this activity interesting because I got to learn some facts I did not know about the Kauri Dieback and how it can kill Kauri trees.
