Maori Session|Parihaka Taranaki

This week for Maori we had Whaea Odie. First she read a story called Remember That November. This story was about a school speech. The children think that Andy will win the speech contest. In Andy's speech it was about Guy Fawkes. Guy Fawkes was a man who attempted to explode the king's castle using gunpowder. In the speech contest Aroha stands up who wore a white feather on her hair. Aroha tells a story about the village Parihaka. Once we listened to the story we had to go on google maps and find Parihaka. Then we had to mark where Parihaka is on a maps sheet we were given. We had to find the nearest place to Parihaka. The nearest was New Plymouth, so we had to mark Parihaka near New Plymouth.

Commenting

This week for commenting I decided to comment on Karlos's blog. The connection that we made was that we both did the reading task. I think Karlos did a fantastic job. I liked the way he explained what he did for reading and how he added a LI:. I also liked the way he added a DLO of what he did and a story that was similar to the story Spark. I just wanted to know if Karlos found it hard to do the reading task. I had fun commenting.
