WALT: communicate a message.


Description: We have been participating in 3 different workshops around colour, compositions and fonts.  We put these skills to use in a poster sharing our knowledge about Te Reo Maori.


Why? We have noticed that our posters are too cluttered and do not communicate a  message well.
When? Week 3
Who? The World


Task: Make a poster about Te Reo Maori.

Please use the below targets to complete this self assessment:
