matariki


We have been leaning about Matariki. Matariki is all about the Maori New year.

We have been learning to making  tukutuku  panels.  Something that challenged me was getting the pattern right because it was hard to get the crosses right. I had to pull those pieces out and start those pieces again. I asked someone else to help me so they could show me what to do to get the crosses right.

I learnt how to thread string through the wood to make a pattern and show a picture. I stretched my perseverance muscles for this learning.

This Tukutuku panels represent  the tears of an Albatross.
