Americas cup

 I completed my americas cup activity.

First we went in group of 4. Then did main ideas we had to look for some information about Americas Cup. Then we sorted the information in to What, When, Who, Where, and Why and that is main ideas.

Next we did some summarising we had to write down 20 words that are important. Then we had to choose 6 words out of the 20 words that we think are more important. After that we had to use the 6 words that we picked and use it in our sentences.

Then we did some evaluating first we had to write what the text was about. After we had to write the interesting facts we learnt from the text. Next we had to write questions after reading the text.

Doing this activity helped me with knowing the americas cup. 



The Highway Rat

Visualisation is creating pictures in your head. This helps understand what we read.

Highway rat is about a rat who is greedy and steals  everyones food. He learns a lesson and everyone lives happily.

My visualisation is different from my partners because we all think diffrently.

We have diffrent visualisations because we have imagine diffrently.

     







 





Place Value and Saying Numbers

 Place value is a system that groups numbers based on their size.

The position of a digit determirs its value. When we say numbers we group then with in the the same house. For  example 15709 has fifteen thousands, Seven hundreds and  nine ones.


Understanding our base 10 place value system allows us to pronounce big numbers properly. It also allows us to identify numbers before and after.

Mihi Whakatau

Mihi Whakatau is a Maori term for a formal greetings.

Mihi Whakatau is traditionally used for welcoming, introductions and openings. It is undertaken by the Tangata whaenua (local inhabitants). The Mihi needs to acknowledge the significant aspects to the place. 

The Maunga (mountain), awa (river) and the (iwi) Tribe are generally used. Introducing Ingoa (name), Oku tipuna (ancestral place) and where you live
is important for the audience to understand the position of the speaker.

Manuhiri is the term used to describe or group the visitors that is being welcomed. It is important to end with a warm welcome so the visitors know that there is no hostility in the two groups being together.

Being respectful of the land, the people and the purpose of a visit will ensure a long lasting relationship and connections.

Cultural Art

 

Today I went outside to get things such as leaves, flowers, rocks and grass to make a bee. I learnt that making a bee with these materials is harder then it looks. First I used the leave as a body. Then I put the two rocks as eyes and taped it to the leaf. Next I also used small leaf as wings for the bee. After that I used grass as legs. Lastly the flower is there to show that the be is feeding on its nectar from flowers .
