Toi Moko Heads.

 

This was a slide about the Toi moko there's not much information on this slide due to the fact that it was hard to find information on this topic, apart from that it was fun to make and all that. If there was more to research about it I would but sadly I couldn't find any sites that had the questions we had to do.

Maui Art.

 

This was a picture I made on Piskel based off Maui I saw an image on google and made it on this it took some time I think it turned out pretty good. It wasn't that hard to make all I did was see what it looked like and then made it on this with pixels there couldn't be that that much detail due to the fact that I had to use it in pixels. It was really fun doing it as well I recommend using this for little cool art projects.

Matariki Reflection.

Before I say my reflection I will tell you about Matariki.

Matariki is the Maori name for "cluster of stars" in English. Matariki means the eyes of the gods or little eyes. The Matariki was also used for transport to look for the way to go in the dark at night. in traditional times Matariki was also a time to celebrate.

Now, this is my reflection of the past year.

1 thing I've learned about my pug is to never get in his way when he is barking at people I was outside playing with him someone walked past I think he was trying to run through my legs and ended up running into my legs and tripping me up and making me fall flat onto the ground.

This year I've really been getting more into basketball but due to COVID-19, we can't go to the rec center to practice basketball so I've been practicing my drilling at my house because our basketball hoop broke because of me.

That's really the only thing that's been interesting this 12 months at my house because of lockdown it's been really boring the only new thing is I got a hair cut from my aunt.
