My Tivaevae Writing

We read cook island a book and it taught us how to make a tivaevae
and what a tivaevae is. A tivaevae is like a tapa cloth, or a Ngatu.
The tivaevae has lots of cook island patterns on it and if it’s a Samoan
tivaevae or a Tokelauan tivaevae, it would have  Samoan or Tokelauan designs
on it.

It’s good to learn new things like how to make a tivaevae, because if you’re in a
group or something, and you are making something, then you would need to
learn how to make a tivaevae before making it.

To make a tivaevae you need material. You need material like thread
and a sewing needle, and also you will need to practice it and you need the
right colours so you don’t be angry at them. I think one of the skills the team
needs is a loud mouth so when you tell them where everything goes they can
hear you properly or you could say where all the right colours go in an interesting
way or an understandable way.

Room 4, can be like the team that makes a tivaevae, by working together.
We can work together by communicating with each other, but if you can’t
communicate properly then you can just help them to communicate with you
or others.
