Hanga Waka Hourua – Tānga Kūkara

  • We have been learning about how to create a waka hourua using shapes and lines.
  • What you can see is a rangatira standing on his waka.
  • We created it by using Tānga Kūkara – Google Drawings
  • I am proud of my work because it helped me to create a picture using shapes and lines.
  • Something I found quite challenging about this was using the line. I forgot the name of the line we had to use (Polyline). The hard part was making the line, clicking off it and then clicking again to do another line.
  • Something I learned was using the Polyline to make the shape of the boat and using different shapes to make the sails.
  • My tips about creating a waka hourua is to use both hands to move the arrow around. Its faster.
  • Do you know the Māori ingoa for boat, Post and sails?
