Do you know how Wairaka saved her tribe?

 

Did you like my sneak peak? Well if you did here's the rest of the story!
As I said I found spelling all the Maori word quite hard and my next steps are to add more descriptive words. Do you like my writing? Samantha.

How much do you know about Matariki?

 

These are my Matariki slides!! In these slides there are some facts about Matariki!
Nothing was really to hard for me but in my next steps I would like to add more information.

A sneak peak at my writing!!!!


The legend of Wairaka

One day long long ago, after traveling around New Zealand for many months on end, the Ngati Awa tribe arrived at a stunning beach with pure white sand and glistening aqua shallows. Also in this wonderful place were lime green planes and big pohutukawa trees, their trunks covered in a rich dark brown color and their red flowers were like sunset diamonds. Tui’s sang joyful notes of song from within the trees which they were hiding.

 The water lapped against their Waka as chief Toroa led all the men off the boat and through the lush lime green grasslands to explore this wondrous island and find a safe place for all the women and children they had left aboard to stay.

 This is a part of my Wairaka legend retell, I will be posting the full version later on this week! I found spelling all the Maori words quite hard! In my next steps I would, put more descriptive words in. I liked I when I weaved parts of my story into other parts! Do you like my story so far?  Samantha.

Do you have quality blog posts?😀

These are my Traffic light slides, in these slides I chose a student from another school for example I chose Lucy from Wesley Intermediate then I went onto Lucy's blog and the traffic light system to see if she was a smart learner! I found it hard to decide on the 3rd statement, punctuation but I pulled through. My next steps would be to mark my own work.
Have you done this before?
