It first appeared in Dali, Yunnan, where local Bai people used natural dyes from plants like indigo to create beautiful blue-and-white patterns. To make tie-dye, artisans fold, twist, or tie fabric with strings, then dip it in dye. The tied parts resist the colour, forming unique designs—no two pieces are ever the same! Traditional materials include cotton cloth, bamboo threads, and eco-friendly dyes. As a Chinese intangible cultural heritage, tie-dye carries great value. It shows the wisdom of ethnic minorities and promotes sustainable fashion. Today, young designers mix it with modern styles to keep it alive. You can try it too—protect this art by learning and sharing it!

We decided to make a colourful kite and fly it.On Saturday afternoon, we gathered materials like paper, sticks, string, and glue at the park. The weather was perfect for kite flying—sunny with a gentle breeze.First, we cut a gold fish shape from a large sheet of paper and decorated it with bright markers.Next, we tied two thin sticks together in a cross shape to form the frame. Then, we glued the paper to the frame carefully.After that, we attached a long string to the kite and added a tail made of strips of colourful fabric for balance.When the kite was ready, we ran across the field to let it catch the wind. It flew high in the sky, and we cheered with excitement. We felt proud of our creation and had so much fun! WritingHomework Must do:1. Finish the exercises on the worksheet. 2.
