matariki


We have been leaning about Matariki. Matariki is all about the Maori New year.

We have been learning to making  tukutuku  panels.  Something that challenged me was getting the pattern right because it was hard to get the crosses right. I had to pull those pieces out and start those pieces again. I asked someone else to help me so they could show me what to do to get the crosses right.

I learnt how to thread string through the wood to make a pattern and show a picture. I stretched my perseverance muscles for this learning.

This Tukutuku panels represent  the tears of an Albatross.     













                                

writing

I have done my writing about the three little pigs but have made my writing called the three little kittens. I am proud of my writing because I have worked hard to put detail into my writing. This part of my writing is the part where I have added lots of detail: 

The first little kitten made a house out of hay the second little kitten made a house out of wood the third kitten made a house of red clay bricks.

do you like my detail in my writing?


Here is my whole story:
On one lonely day the three little kittens went home mother says we have to move out of home but watch out for the big bad dog. The first little kittens named was     Keiarliya the second Pippa and Roxy. All the kittens went to build their own home. the first little kitten made a house out of hay the second little kitten mad e a house out of wood and the thred little kitten made a house out of red clay bricks. The big bad dog pretends to be there mum “let me in I have some food for you so let me in” “not by the fur of my chiny chin chin” youled the little kitten. The big bad dog pretends to be there mum “let me in I have some food for you so let me in” not by the fur of my chiny chin chin. So the big bad dog went to the third house were all the kittens were. The big bad dog was inside the chimney and the big bad dog went in the little brick house all the little kittens were screaming out “mother mother” “the dog is being mean to us” but the mum didn't hear them. The dog scratched all the little kittens in the face. The mum finally heard  the dogs knows. I hoped you liked my story.
