For Four Weeks I will be posting on things about New Zealand. Today is the first day for the summer learning Journey and the title for today is In The Beginning ( 1800-1870). Here are all the links for today's Activity's Polynesia Map , The Arrival Of Maori , Maui And The Giant Fish , Waka , Waka Ama , 2014 National Sprints - Master Men 500m Final
Activity One: Arriving in New Zealand
Give three interesting facts About Maui
1.He caught the biggest fish in the world
2.He was the best fisher in his country
3.He can use his blood for bait
Activity Two: Setting To Sail
To imagine that we were on the Waka to be the first people to new Zealand and to write a letter to a friend.
Dear Hayley
It is so scary out here we are ruining out of food and I got put as the cook, and I have to fish to find a big fish to feed everyone. But i'm not the best fisher in the world the best fisher on the Waka Die because he fell over bored while fishing for a fish. I wish you were here with me.
This place is scary and not a place for me to. I hope I will see you before we both Die and not see anyone anymore.
Stay in touch.
Your Friend Nici
Bonus Activity: Waka Ama
Watch a short video about Waka Ama Race and say if you want to be a Waka Ama racer one day or not.
I want to be Waka Ama Racer one day because it looks like a very fun sport.

Kia Ora again Connie,
ReplyDeleteActivity 1: The First Settlers.
Thanks very much for providing us with three interesting facts about Maui, I enjoy your first fact: "he caught the biggest fish in the world" — can you tell us exactly what the name of that fish is?
Activity 2: Setting Sail.
Kia Ora Connie, well done for such a lovely creative piece of writing! I really enjoy that you gave your main character an identity by giving them a title such as 'the cook'— awesome!
Is cooking something that interests you?
Bonus Activity: Waka Ama.
Kia Ora e hoa, thanks for telling us whether or not you'd like to be a Waka Ama racer— fair enough that you've said no, too. It would be quite a tiring sport, I imagine.
Do you enjoy any sort of sport?
Cheers,
Jordan.
