Matariki celebration

Every year in the late May or the early June there is a Māori celebration called Matariki, it is  where all the māori people come together and spend time together and do all sorts of stuff like kite making, fishing, kapa haka and all sorts of activities, it is also the māori new year.

Me and my buddy Darnell  have been working on our Manu Tukutuku (kite making) for our Matariki celebration at school  we made our Manu with some Māori materials, the materials we used were Raupō (it’s a type of flax), wool and Toetoe.

Across our school our class went to a Toetoe bush, Our class had to say our kadakia to show our tikanga to the Toetoe, (tikanga means why we do for what we do).

The easiest part was cutting the Raupō and putting it on top of the Toetoe, the hardest part was that we had to measure the Toetoe and then we had to figure out how to split it into three pieces.

Room 9 was also doing Manu Tukutuku, they were making it like they were in the olden days, we were just making creative ones.

Jax’s fish ‘n’ chips

Purpose : thank you note

Dear : Jax

Thank you for coming to Rangikura school to share your oprea show.

My most favorite part was when Nemo and Adina got together so Nemo’s  wish came true.  The funny bit was when the salesman gave Nemo a love potion but it was actually L&P.

I loved it so much that I wish that you guys will come back again.

Yours sincerely

my book review

Hi these are my books that I got from the duffy team. as you see there my books are called the impossible quest ( wolves of the witchwood ) by Kate Forsyth and do you dare ? by H. Breker.  The inpossible quest is about a I know every hidden path thought these woods.  trust me.  there is no griffin in this forest.  And do you dare  ? is about just some do you dare jokes and tricks.  Hope you like my books.

decimals

Hi, this is my maths that I wrote with miss hills and with my group ( team support ) .

We were learning where to put decimals in the right space, decimals are used for many things like maths and even for money, like for example 9 tenths is the same as 0.9 .It was really hard but then we got the hang of it. please leave a comment down below to see if you can come up with some hard decimal question and then I will try and figure out it.
 

all about me

his is my identity,  we learn all sorts of stuff like whanaungatanga,  manaakitanga,  what whanaungatanga and manaakitanga means and face artwork,  We learnt this with whea Toni and miss Hills,  I took about 9 weeks do this.

What’s on my picture

On my picture I have my whanaungatanga,  manaakitanga and what it means, and my face artwork.

What whanaungatanga means  

Whanaungatanga means a sense of belonging to a group and which also means kindness,  love and care.

What manaakitanga means

Manaakitanga is the first step to whanaungatanga and what manaakitanga means partnership,

participation,  and protection.
