On Friday the 8th, we had a Team Tui expo! It started from after assembly and ended at the end of morning tea. The expo was basically just us showcasing our slides and create for the LCS we did. The LCS was to learn and create stuff about the cultural group we are in for the cultural festival (which is going to happen next week Friday). For the LCS, Liana and I were in the same cultural group (Zumba) so we partnered up. We created a headband and loom bands!
Task Description: This is from last terms LCS (Learn, Create, Share). I was supposed to post this ages ago but I forgot.
For the Matariki Festival on Thursday, I was in a group with Phyu Sin and CC and we did star balls.
What I found disappointing was that no people really did a full star ball. But it’s really hard and time consuming so I understand why. I also understand that you would want to explore everything at a festival and not stick to one station. There was also pretty limited time to walk around and explore before home time since the performances were more than 1 hour. Not that many people came to our station and the advertising posters couldn’t be put up because of a false advertisement error. We had no prizes like candy, so people probably weren’t that interested.
But there were also really fun stuff about it, I did stuff at other stations and got candy and other things. I think focusing on the fun things that happened are better than focusing on the disappointing stuff. I mean, at least there was way more than 1 person in total visiting our station. It might’ve not worked as planned but I think we had fun and people still visited our station. There was stuff we could’ve done better though, like maybe plan what prizes would be before the day before the festival.
Task Description: On the 30th of May, Room 12 did slide presentations of coconuts! This was because it was Samoan Language Week. First we partnered up with somebody and then we did research on coconuts and it’s uses.
Task Description: For our LCS topic which is Natural Disasters, we did a project about a natural disaster of our choice. My choice was earthquakes, did you know earthquakes mostly occur in the pacific ocean?
Task Description: These are the Diwali activity slides for LCS. Diwali is a festival to celebrate joy and light over darkness and evil. I did these slides with Phyu-sin.
Task Description: For this task in creative arts, we made symbols/poster and images that visualise what LCS looks like. This is my art that visualises LCS.
I took the polyline Mona Lisa from my 2020-2021 blog.
Task Description: For this task, we had to choose another protest to read and do the activities on. This time I chose the Springbok Tour. I have done 3/4 protest slides :D.
Task Description: In reading, we had to choose a protest to read and do the activities on. I chose the Maori Land March. Its very cool how Dame Whina Cooper was able to lead a protest despite being 79.
Task Description: For this task, I had to list all the ways we humans are harming and using the ocean.
