Mind-Blowing Facts About My Te Reo Maori.

 This term in Te Ngahere we have been doing a Te Reo Maori DLO. Our DLO had to be a weather report first of all we had to learn the names of the weather like sun (ra) rain (ua) and a storm (awha) in te reo Maori. After that we had to start writing a Te reo Maori script. In our groups we had to say the weather in 4 different places all in NZ. I did Paihia, Kapiti, Mangonui and Whangarei. After you write the script you have to do a screencastify of your group saying your weather report as if you were on TV.

Here is the link to my script link.

I think I did pretty good except most of it I got help from the teachers and other students.

In our script we had to introduce ourselves and say a farewell at the end.

Terrific T-Shaped

 This term in Te Ngahere we have been doing lots of T-Shaped. This T-Shaped was about looking at a picture and thinking of what was happening and what might happen next. I found it quite easy because I have a good imagination. It helped us to start looking at mood and atmosphere in stories.

Here is the link to the doc.

Cool Cricket.

 Today a man called Neil came in and tought us how to play Cricket. When we got out we had to start batting. After a bit of batting we had to play a game of Speed Cricket we were Feilding first and I was the  Backstop. I was the best player that played backstop in our team. Then when it was are teams turn to bat I was the first one up. We changed positions 6 times. The other team beat us by only one point.

I think that I did pretty good

Because I got a person out by

catching the ball on the full.

The Holidays.

 During my two week break off school I went fishing. On the Saturday of the last week I cycled all the way to Waitangi from Paihia School (my school). That is about 2 miles. When I got there I realised I forgot to bring my knife and chopping board so I had to use my mums work scissors. I got in big trouble for that. As soon as the bait was on the hook I cast my sabiki in the water. Almost straight away I caught a Spotty. Spottys are not edible and are no good for bait so I put him back. When I put the rig back in the water I hooked I nice Parore but if I pulled it up with only the sabiki it would have broken. I had not got the net out yet so I had to get it out with only one hand. In the end the hook hooked onto the net a went snack so the big boy got away. After about one more hour I went back home very sad.

Next time I go fishing at Waitangi I will set my net up first instead of the rod.
