When we were finished we all took some photos. After that we put art on the walls.                                                                 

             




                                                                                                                 

Aboriginal art

We made aboriginal dot art. Aboriginal art is a dot painting that has symbols.

We practice aboriginal art and we drew the symbols with paint.

Then we watched a video to teach us about the aboriginal art story.

Then we painted on the black paper. We got cotton buds to paint dots on our animal outlines.

Simple Sentences

Today we finish our simple sentences we had to  look at a  photo and make as much simple sentence as we can.

First we look for a partner and we looked at the photo and get all the details out of the photo. Then we started our simple sentences and try to find more details in the photo.

First waka

Originally there were no people in New Zealand . The first people to settle in New Zealand  came in a series of waka. The first ten waka were named:Kurahaupō, Tākitimu, Mataatua, Tainui, Te Arawa, Aotea, Tokomaru, Horouta, Uruao, Ārai-te-uru.

Most of the waka visited the North island. Some of the places the waka landed at were Takapaukura, Takou Bay and Kaipara Harbour.

The ten waka came to New Zealand to discover new lands for people to live.

L.I: To learn early exploration

Kiwi Sport

LI: to play a game and drill for Rippa.

Our coaches Yoana and Ice.

For Kiwi Sport we were doing one drill it was running. We had to run to the blue cone and pass the ball to the person behind you and pass it back then we run to the yellow cones and run like a zic zac after we run around the flag then pass to the person.

The game we played was the real game. When you are a red tagged you go to Ice if you are Green tagged you go to Yoana.  

Listening

KiwiCan was about listening.

We played 'bop the cone' to practise listening for instructions.

We also played 'Chinese whispers' to practise listing and hearing information.

I thought about 'bop the cone' it was good for our listening skills.
