I am...

Here are two great examples of our 'I am' poetry from last week. Some of us are still publishing our poems. Everyone has done a fantastic job and we are all pretty confident at rhyming (especially with a little help from rhymezone!)

Tino pai Brooke rāua ko Te Amohanga! Great self-regulated learning!

Outstanding Work 18/2/16

Check out this amazing work! Well done Connor, you worked so well and put in lots of effort! RERE would be so proud!

We were learning the Māori names for:
Mountain: Maunga
Hill: Puke
River: Awa
Lake: Roto
Ocean/Sea: Moana
Canoe: Waka
Tribe: Iwi
Sub-tribe: Hapū

We have already talked to our families about landmarks and water sources that are important to us and we will use this information to write our pēpehā (a way to introduce ourselves in Māori). This will link in to our 'take a dot for a walk' art.
