Making Tukutuku Mats

 

               This term we have been learning about making tukutuku patterns and how you can see them in a

               wharenui on the walls. A wharenui is a meeting house. I made a tukutuku mat and I think

               I did a pretty good job. To make it we needed a cardboard loom and strips of black and red 

               paper. We had to weave the strips in and out and secure them on the edge of the loom with glue.
