Pounamu's Stones

A few weeks ago, we read the book 'Pounamu's Stones' by Dot Meharry. This narrative is about a girl called Pounamu, who is raised by her grandmother. While spending time with her gandmother, she learns practical skills and great wisdom. Pounamu's heart tells her that her grandmother has chosen her for a special reason, but she must first learn and discover a life's story before she finds out what that reason is. Once we had read the text, we looked at different designs of pounamu, and created out own through the use of pastels. Enjoy!
