Extension Symbols Blog

On the 17th of November Mr Tele'a came to extension to show us his tattoos to help us with our learning. He took his shirt off to show us the tattoos. There was one but it was a big one called the Tatau. It stretched from halfway down his back to his knees. We started to ask questions and my favourite question was What bit was your favourite part? The answer was his bellybutton because as soon as the bellybutton is tattooed the Tatau was over.

Here are some pictures
























 We have been investigating tattoos for our school topic art attack. We had to draw a tattoo that meant a lot to us and a cultural tattoo. I made a Pokemon card because my friends in nelson and I loved to collect Pokemon cards and for the cultural tattoo I drew a lion because it is the national animal of Netherlands and a Maori greenstone



Here's a movie we watched to get the term started
