Tapa Turtles

With Mrs white were have been learning about… tapa a a type of cloth made by some native island tribes

We were going to try and make it.

We  learned how to make it and started learning about symmetry, reflection,rotation.

We did math rotations and learnt so much I enjoyed it.1 Good Turn was my favorite rotation   

So we started we drew our design in our sketch book and copied it onto a piece of wood

We drew a turtle on a piece of paper and cut it out we added design to the turtle in pencil

When we were done we traced over with indian ink and left to dry. I crumped and squashed a piece of paper until it was very very wrinkled  and then dyed it a light redy brown color and left to dry. I carved out my design on the block of wood. I got a roller and covered it in printing ink and stamped it 3 times on 2 stripes of paper and waited for them to dry. The next day I glued

It all together and it looked like this. Over all I had great fun:]
