Matariki Art

Hello and Welcome this is what my class Room 7 did as a Matariki art. We made 7 stars that are really white as you can see and then we tapped our paint brush so there could be a lot of stars around it. Everyone in our class did one and we had different types of mountains and different types of colors. Some of us copied our teachers one and some of us did rainbow colors.
