Ina and the Shark.

In our Reading this week each of our groups got different myths/legends. We had to pick one story and retell it. Me and Tupou picked the Cook Island one, which is called Ina and the Shark. Our slideshow retells the story of Ina who wanted to actually meet her love in person because they lived far away from each other. We chose this one because they still loved each other no matter what. Hope you enjoy my slideshow.

Matariki Stars.

For Matariki our class had decided to do something nice for Matariki. First we had to pick 5 of the Matariki sisters for each separate star. For my Star I chose Ururangi, Waiti, Waita, Tupuanuku and Tupuarangi. They were very interesting to learn about especially because I didn't know much about them when I had started.

Book Review

 This week in class we chose a book we would like to do a book review about. The book I chose was Smile by Raina Telgemeier. We all got little booklets and we had to answer and draw some scenes about Smile. Overall Smile was an awesome book to do. It was full of up's and down's especially when the main character had broken her teeth. Hope I can read another book like Smile.

Country Research.

This week in class we did a research about different countries we would like to learn about.  I chose to do my research on Israel.  I picked Israel because I didn't know much but it and I wanted to learn more and more about its culture.  When I had finished I had learnt lots of facts and details about Israel. Overall it was fun and exciting.
