Rangoli Patterns,

For our inquiry we are learning about celebrations. Our big book this week is called Diwali. Diwali is Indian new year. The Indian new year is at a different time to New Zealand new year. For Diwali, people make beautiful symmetrical patterns called rangoli patterns. They welcome people and bring good luck. They are made with coloured powder or rice.
For maths we have been learning about geometry so we made our own rangoli patterns with the shapes.















For art we are making rangoli patterns with pastel.
