My Moari Voki

 Hey blogger

This Friday in Toroa hub we have watched a video of how maui fished up the north island but except with no words or narrating.The reason for this was because for our task we had to narrate of what we think he would of said heres a link to it.

Heres what it says in it incase you cant understand it

Maui was in the sea day and night. He grabbed his Matua and chucked it overboard. As it bubbled in the water. He sat there and waited, he waited and waited. Until the Matua started to move around. He quickly moved into a squatting position and pulled, he pulled and pulled until he could see something that looked like a giant Whai repo. Then the giant Whai repo arises from the deep waters of the hūkerikeri. And turned into the north island.

Hope you enjoyed it

Kupe the great warrior

 Hi bloggers 

Welcome back I know I haven't done a post in ages but here is an animation about a famous Maori person called Kupe.

Fantastic Matariki

Happy Matariki everyone! 

On the 2 July, we celebrated the Māori New Year, a time to consider the year ahead. The days are starting to lengthen and spring will soon be here, we just need to get through this cold winter first! Matariki and the Pleiades star cluster, have got many stories attached to them. We looked at two; one about how Ranginui and Papatuanuku were separated by Tāne Mahuta, and how Tāwhirimatea was so angry he ripped out his eyes and threw thunderbolts to the sky, creating the cluster, and another story about 7 sisters making kites, and them going to the sky. Ururangi’s kite was different from the rest, it was rainbow-colored. We have mixed these two stories to create the design of our kites. My kite has a taniwha and the body of it is faded into a cloud because it represents wind I also colored it to be like a rainbow.

What stories have you heard about Matariki?

Kia Ora everyone!                                                                                                                                                    Welcome back to my blog! So it's nearly Matariki and our class decided to make Matariki art.                                 Here is mine, I really enjoyed this activity! 

Are you celebrating Matariki? Now if you want to make one of these of your own here are the instructions. 

1. Draw your design on a spare piece of paper just remember With the stars you must make sure to draw them on the opposite side and possibly way than mine because if you don't it will not end up like mine and it will be the wrong way round
2. Draw it again on a piece of foam (make sure to have a bit of pressure)
3. Have a roller of paint and then paint of two colors ( or more)
4. Put a piece of paper over your wet design ( Make sure to add some pressure so it sticks)
5. Take the paper off and add your name so you don't get mixed up
6. Rinse the foam under a tap ( so all the paint is off)
7. Get a paper towel and dry it so you can have another go 
8. Do it as many times as you want!
9. Get a piece of card and cut out an even frame
10. Put the picture in the frame and cut off any extra paper hanging out the side
11. Glue it all together
12. Add your signature down the bottom

STEAM

 Hi blogger 

Welcome back. This week in Toroa we have been doing science experiments. This week one was dropping an egg from a certain height but the challenge was don't let the egg break so the teachers gave us certain materials to try and wrap it up or make a parachute for it. This an image of my teams.

(if you cant read it zoom in)

(oh our egg broke)

Well that's it maybe you should try and do this science experiment
