For this task I was to build a kite from mostly recycled material.
I used:
2 sticks
tape
wrapping paper
wrapping paper tube
ribbon
I made my little brother one to draw on too.

Kia Ora Alex,
This is Zana from the Summer Learning Journey. It is awesome to see so many posts on your blog!!
What a fun and engaging art activity, art is one of my favourite hobbies and subjects to teach so I am enjoying all the art activities this summer. Manu Tukutuku is a fun activity, my students complete a manu tukutuku project each year, usually around Matariki. Have you made one before?
I think your kite looks beautiful, I like that you went above and beyond by being sustainable and using recycled materials and by adding your beautiful design, and how kind you are to make one for your brother as well. If you were to spend more time stepping up the quality of your kite, what would you add?
Keep up the great work!

Talofa lava, Alex!

Your kite sounds so creative and thoughtful—using recycled materials is such a great idea! I love that you made one for your little brother to draw on too. That’s such a kind and fun way to involve him in the activity.
The materials you used are super clever, especially the wrapping paper and tube. Maybe next time, you could share a photo or video of the kite flying—it would be awesome to see it in action!
Keep up the amazing work, and I hope you and your brother had heaps of fun with your kites. Ka mau te wehi! 😊
