Learning Coach Author: Mrs Gernhoefer

Date: Term 1, 2017
Harry has been learning about Maori Myths and Legends in iExperience. The learning coaches took him through the differences between a Myth and Legend. His learning coach read the book “Hinapau” to the class. Harry’s task was to listen to the story and draw inspiration from it in order to draw a picture based on the story “Hinepau”. This task encourages him to make connections between the text and knowledge of drawing.
After listening to the story, Harry was inspired to draw a volcano. He showed his capabilities in drawing by adding beautiful Koru patterns to it to represent smoke coming out of the volcano.
