How did this kit help your students understanding of art with a purpose? The helped the tamariki to work together to create a combined art work. Each had their own individual piece in it, and combined, the work looked great. They were able to encourage each other and use ideas together.

It was a good kit, but delay in the kit arriving meant it has been a well into term 2 before I could start with the group o students I was working with. I need to start the group with another activity while I had time to read through every thing. So between this, school production and Covid lockdown and now my absence from class for medical reasons, we have only got through the kit part way.

How did this kit help your students understanding of art with a purpose? Through exploring the idea of symbolism in art, particularly with symbols that point to a message of unity and inclusion.
