Today the children of P4-7 created their very own Rangoli patterns as part of our study of the Hindu festival of Divali. The patterns are put on doorsteps to welcome the Goddess of Wealth into homes.
Rangoli patterns are not a permanent form of art - can you tell what our patterns are made out of?

Brilliant! It is great to see the end product as I was in the classroom at the very start and saw what was about to be created but now can see it finished. At this rate, I won’t have to come to school at all as I can see what you are up to on the blog!

I think the rangoli art was fun to do because we got to use rice,peas,chickpeas and lentils and to do it we made stencils and put the the things it them and bang you’ve got one!:]:]
I like the stuff we used.We used rice,lentils,chick peas and garden peas.
Whad to make it a symetrical pattern.
This was the best art lesson ever. I loved it so much but even though it was excellent we had to let our pictures go because after we made them we tosed them away and made soup. What I mean is we used rice, lentils and split peas which were so frustrating to get into shape.
Hi p4-7
Those rangoli patterns looked great!! We made some last year for Art Alive. Unfortunately we do not have any photos to share. But using chickpeas and lentils look amazing. Keep up the great work
Thanks for the comments! What is “Art Alive”?
Great rangoli art work! I hadn’t thought of using rice or lentils. Thanks for sharing with us.
