Summer Learning Journey

The Summer Learning Journey as created a challenge for some of the school and Christ The King is one of them. The senior class has all signed up so my blogs will be about different years like the first week is about the beginning of 1800-1870. 

SLJ: Maui's history of Aotearoa

I have learned about things that I didn't know that was intersting like,The Maori name for that particular part? is Te Ika a Maui (North Island), and questions that we might think of is What type of fish do you think this part of Aotearoa is? A Stingray. 

I am interested because I have learned that all these answers have an important meaning to the story. Te lka a maui is important because it's the name of the fish that he caught, Stingray is the type of fish that Maui pulled up out of the water. The hook as the end of the North Island which is the head, and the long white tail is the top of the North Island

Through the week the senior hub had worked on choosing a leader for our Inquiry projects. This is a poster of the group that I am in. Please leave a positive comment after you are done.

Happy Mothers Day

Happy mother’s day

When you thought I wasn’t looking,

I saw you doing the dishes,

that makes me want to help others too.

When you thought I wasn’t looking,

I heard that we will move,

that makes me want to go and travel around.

When you thought I wasn’t looking,

I saw you picking me up when school finished because  it's raining,

that makes me want to pick up Hepi when she is at primary.

When you thought I wasn’t looking,

I heard you saying your prayer,

that makes me believe in God.

                                               

When you thought I wasn’t looking,I saw you paying the rent,I learned that when you grow up it is important that people live in one place.

When you thought I wasn’t looking,I saw you get tired when you woke up at 10:15pm

I learned that when you go to work at night you get tired in the morning and at night

When you thought I wasn’t looking,

I saw you making dinner,

that makes me want to cook dinner one day.

When you thought I wasn't looking.

I looked....and I wanted to say thanks for all the things.

My Camp Recount

Balance Island

Waiting for my turn looking across the line for balance island I looked at people's faces.  I can see by their expression both  scared and brave.

I hear half of the boys and girls saying “Wow, that looks easy!”and the other half saying, “That’s hard”.

In my opinion it was hard because I  know that I was scared of heights.

I started walking looking up and down, side to side. As I walked I saw tadpoles swimming in the lake between the sticks that were poking out of the water. The water was muddy at the bottom and had lots of water weed.
