Maori Reflection


This week I was in the creative strand for reading we had to choose two different woodcut patterns and mix them together to make your own design

The things that I enjoyed was learning how to carve out my woodcut design. And seeing my finished product on wood and cut out. This Art design was really fun and I can't wait to do it again.


The things that I didn't really like was waiting for the other kids to finish printing their woodcut design on paper. Another thing that I didn't enjoy was my fingers getting cramped from holding the carving knife for to long.

What I found Interesting was learning different patterns and finding the Samoan name for them. Another thing I found interesting was trying to draw the different patterns and getting it right.


I learnt how to hold a carving knife properly and I also learnt different ways and patterns of the Polynesian design. I really liked carving and having a different experience.
