Taha Wairua ~

This my final Te Whare Tapa wha task. Which is Taha Wairua. Taha Wairua is based around your spiritual health. 

So basically I had to get a coloured object and say it in Maori. I've done this sort of task before so I concord it pretty well. This was a super fun task to finish. Hope to do it again sometime.

He aha te tae ?

Kia Ora. This is a Te Reo based task. The Walt for this task was ~ ask and answer questions about what things are.~ In this case the question for this task was He aha te tae ? ~ Makawe ~. Then our follow up task I had to answer the questions on the slides in Te Reo. This was a super fun task to accomplish.  Along with this comes with a comic strip hope you enjoy.

Volumetric!

Today we had to work out the volume of a box without a lid. We got to pick the size of the box and create it, we were trying to find the largest volume . :)

Te Reo Maori Moment ~

Today is the first very day of Maori language week. To celebrate this wonderful moment Pt England School is having a special moment. So 12:00 on the dot we will be singing a Maori waiata E Ihoa. Reason for that was because in the year 1972 at 12:00 pm 30,000 people petitioned to keep the native Maori Language alive.

Divine Decimals

Kia Ora fellow blog readers. This is my first task for this week and also my first maths task this week. So this task was mainly about adding and subtracting decimals, and also converting between the units of measurements. Then on page 8 I had to guess how much of that certain food weighs in grams. Then page 7 I had to guess how many ml are in those drugs. Lastly on page 5 I had to guess the time on each clock.

So basically its different problems in one presentation. This was super fun to do.

Te Reo ~ He Haketa Kikorangi?

Malo E lelei fellow blog readers. Thanks for stoping by to see this blog post. So this was a Te reo task we had to in rotations while the Year 8s were at tech. This was based around colours and objects. I had to fill in the sentences and figure out what colour that jacket is or the ball. Since it was Te reo I had to answer all the questions in Maori. This was a absolute great task. I always enjoy Te Reo.


Along with this task I had to accomplish and create task as well.  I had to make a comic strip, and I had to repeat what we did on the follow up task. I like to make things more bright, and so I did the comic strip my way. This was also a cool task to finish.

Area ~ Perimeter, Of a Tapa Cloth

Kia Ora fellow blog readers.
 In today's task I had to find out the Area and Perimeter of a Tapa cloth. Now if you go on the slide with the problem on it it seems pretty easy. Until you find out those cm's are for one of the squares. That was really hard just to even understand what was going on, in the slides.

In this task I had to add and multiply. This was a very challenging maths task. I would write some answers and then write another answer. But with a little bit of help from one of my friend I was able to finish this maths  based task off properly. Thanks for listening ~ Take Care ~.

Why Culture Is Important To Me !

Talofa Lava, and Malo e Lelei, fellow blog readers.

So in today's task  Room 4 had to do a culture based task. Well we had to write about our cultural traditions and how we/I celebrate it.

Now if you read my all about me, I am lucky enough to have both Samoa and Tonga culture through my bloodline. Now for me I thought it would of been a bit bias if I only picked one culture. So I decided to make 2 slides talking about each Individual culture. I love both country and I hope to do this task again some time.

Funky Fractions

Malo e Lelei blog readers. Welcome to another week of posting. So this is my first maths based task for this week. And the platform around this task is mainly about Equivalent Fractions. This was again a good task to finish some question we challenging but I manged to get it done before our school intervals. I'm glad I finish this task. I love doing these types of maths problems. Thanks for listening. ~ Take Care ~.

Have a Happy Tongan Language Week.

Tongan Language Week

This week is Tongan Language week. Tongan language week is the celebration of the Tongan culture and language and to introduce New Zealanders to it. In New Zealand there are more Tongans born than there is in the actual country, as of now. And so it’s very important to acknowledge the Tongan Heritage. The theme for this year is “ Fakakola o Aotearoa aki ae Lotu Mo’oni”. If you translate it in English it’s “ Enriching Aotearoa New Zealand through Prayer and Faith”.

~ The capital of Tonga is Nuku Alofa.
~ Tonga is a Polynesian Kingdom of greater than 170 south pacific islands.
~ The population of the Kingdom of Tongan comes up to 103,197 in the year 2018.
~ The island of Tongan was actually found in the year 1970 on June the 4.
~ Tonga's King is a man named Tupou Vi.
~ In Tonga they are 1 hour ahead of New Zealand * Time Based*

This photo we took was actually when family members from Tonga travelled here to New Zealand to take part in our Family reunion. This reunion was held in Hamilton. This family is from my Mom's side. This was really fun to attend.

In these photos this was in the year 2015. And My family and I had the opportunity to actually go to Tonga and meet people there. This was a time to really get to know each other and spend time together. This was a super fun experience. And I hope to do it again. 

Once again have a happy Tongan Language Week.

~ Measurements! ~

Malo e Lelei blog readers. Welcome. Again thanks for taking the time out to check this post I've accomplished today. So today Room 4 are doing F.I.O.P (finishing it off properly.). And I thought what better way to do F.I.O.P then post a Maths task.

So this task as you can see from the front of the slide show is based on Measurements. This was a decent task. I was super challenged while doing this task. Especially the task when I had to Convert Between These Units of Measurements.

Hi blog readers. Welcome, again. Thanks for taking your time to check out this post. So as you probably already have seen this is a Whare tapa Wha based task.

Kia Orana, Blog readers. Welcome again. So this is my task that we did when the year 8 students went off to tech. In case you you were wondering this is a Te Reo based task, and this task my teacher was Ms Tapuke.

And in case you still don't get what this is all about check out the slide show that I have accomplished today.

Whare Tapa Wha : Taha Whanau

Good Morning blog readers. So Today I did another task which again was about Whare Tapa Wha. Before this post I did a task based on the wall Taha Tinana. Well this task was based on another wall which was ~ Taha Whanau ~. So throughout this time I was doing this task I learnt the Taha Whanau is about creator a tight bond with others. And that tight bond doesn't need to be you immediate family and friends.   It can be peers, colleagues and people around the community's. Hope your being a great friend to others. Thanks for Listening. ~ Take Care ~

This task had Equivalent Fractions, and Adding Decimals. This was a actual decent task. Because I knew the Equivalent fraction part but then I had heaps of trouble with the adding decimal. I love a to challenge myself with maths question, and with a bit of help by my teacher Mrs. Stone I was able to be one of the first person to blog in my maths group.

A Moon Myth

Talofa Lava, blog readers. This task is also part of my catch up work. This is a reading based subject and this story is based on another famous Maori myth (Rona and The Moon). This was the first myth I was actually familiar myth because when I was younger my class sang a song about Rona and the Moon.  The reason why we did this task was to make connections across a range of texts and well know'n as my walt for last weeks task. Anyways Thanks for listening and checking out my blog.
