Week 2, at Ormiston, it is Maori language week.
On Monday, we had our two first iExperiences.
Our first iExperience was with our Hapu Learning Coach and then our second one will be with another learning coach. Hapu groups (Hapu groups are groups with a learning coach that we started having from Term 2)
My Hapu group was called Kiwis. Our Hapu learning coach is Mr Dyer.
We did singing together. We went over songs that we sing at Hui time and our National Anthem. Some of out team mates were able to stand in front of our group and sing some of the songs. The girls and boys had a go at singing the National Anthem in different parts. So the girls went first and them the boys went last and I must say the boys were pretty good at it. They weren't bad. After, the girls won. GO GIRLS!!

Kiwis second iExperience was with Mrs Dillner. We had to use Pic Collage which is a app where we can put on photos and text and stickers to create our own collage. We had to be in a groups of three. Me, Taanvi and Anjli were together. We all had a book base on a topic. Our book was about animals. They had some pictures of animals with their name and Maori name. We had to pick which one interested us most and take a picture of it and insert it into Pic Collage. We then had to find the sign for it. My group did something different. We put our picture of our animal on Pic Collage and then we founded the sign for it on images and then we put it with it.
Maori language week is #oresome. I have learnt a lot of new things and I have really enjoyed Maori language week so far.
Jasmine your blog posts get better and better, ka pai! I wonder if your post would be even better if you used some of the new Maori language you learned? What's your favourite animal/colour/number in Maori?

PS; have you been leaving buddy blog comments?
To Ms Wilkes
ReplyDeleteYes, it would be better if I added some Maori words in my Blog so my readers know that I've learnt Maori words and not that I wrote this blog for nothing. My favourite animal is te raiona (lion). My favourite colour is Kikorangi (blue). My favourite number is rima (5).
