About Me
I am a year 4 student at Tamaki Primary School in Auckland NZ. I am in Room 6 and my teacher is Mr Craig. My favourite subjects are maths, reading and writing because I am mostly good at them. My interests are sports and coming to school. In the future I want to be a rugby player for Tonga.

How to make a Tapa Cloth
Sketching Shells
Firstly we had to sketch some shells with pencil. We sketched the outline
and the main lines on the inside of the shell’s. Then we chose the best one.
Transferring the Design
Secondly, we transferred the design onto cardboard. We went over the main lines with
black vivid. We also adding a border with different designs. I used diamonds and triangles.
Scrunching the Cardboard
Next, we scrunched the cardboard about 30 times. When we had finished the paper felt like
smooth cloth.
Adding Colour
Finally, we started adding colour to our tapa cloth. We used the black and brown pastels. My tapa cloth looked like soft cloth and I was excited about how it looked
