O te hapai o

This week my class and I have been learning about a new song called O te hapai o. It is a song for the ringawera and it is appropriate for a wedding, tangi, chrisning and more places. The hard part about learning the actions because they were pretty hard and weird. The easy part was leaning the words because they were just so easy to learn. The thing I will do next time is put more time into the actions  because I didn’t really know them. Here are the words and it is a Maori song 

O te hapai o  mokore an o Nga mihi na koutou te Kia I Taka ko ki, ko ngata, ko makona ka puta pito e

Problem solving

Today we did problem solving and I had a blast because I learnt hoe to use another way to work out time tables in the hundreds. You also need to to remember the rules which are: work from right to left and other rules. The easy part was solving the equation when I found out how to do it. The hard part was remembering where to put the zeros and other numbers. The thing I will do next time will be to remember to use the rules and work from right to left. Here is a piece of mahi my class did.

Using a colon

This week we have been learning about how to use a colon : in our writing It is very fun because it's very easy to use and I think it is a great way to make a list. The easy part about using it was I could use it like all the time and I new where to put them. The hard part was trying to use it because I couldn't fine a place to put it because I forgot. The thing I will do next time is to use it more often and not to forget it is punctuation and it will get me higher in my rubric ( Punctuation ) Here is an example and what it means (colon).

Colon (punctuation) The colon ( : ) is a punctuation mark consisting of two equally sized dots centered on the same vertical line. A colon precedes an explanation or an enumeration, or list.
Margret had gone to the store and bought: Veggies, fruit, chocolate and drinks.

First encounter

For the past 3 weeks my group: Tamarah, Josh, Quin,Kody, Honekai and I were learning about Able Tasman and his first encounter with aotearoa and maori. It was very fun because I got to search information about a sailor. The easy part was working together as a team because we were very collaborative. The hard part was  writing it in our own words and making more designs for our 3d world which I will talk about soon. The thing I will do next time is make more objects for our 3d world. Our 3d world was about Tasman and Maori blowing the trumpet and putatara. Here is my groups and my work.
