Reading - Sign language (national anthem)

 Malo e leilei my fellow readers

Today I have finally had the courage to do the video fo my doing the national anthem in sign language. I am kind of motionless in the video but that is ok at least I did the video tho. Something I found hard was to try not to sing along with the person who was singing because I really wanted to sing a long but I was too shy to. Something I found easy was just looking at my screen and copying what the people in the video where doing. I hope you like what I have done please comment down bellow and if you want to learn this than go to this link and watch the video that I watched. Thanks for coming onto my blog BYE!.

Te reo maori / What we have been doing during te reo

 Ki ora tatou my fellow readers

During my week of school my class have been learning some te reo maori. It has been very cool doing some te reo maori classes. During the week we have been learning some freaces and words in te reo. 

We have been learning how to say some:

• Colours
• Class room objects
• How to ask for an object
• How to ask if you where telling someone to pass something to you

These are some of the exapmles of what we had to say:

(red = maori      blue = english)

Akomanga - Classroom
Kutikuti - Scissors
Pene Papama - Whiteboard marker

He aha tenei? - What is this?
He aha enei? - What are these?

reply:

He _____ tenei - This is a ______
He _____ enei - These are ______

Homai te _Object_ - Pass me the _Object_
Homai te _Objejct_ _Colour_ - Pass me the _Object_ _Colour_
Hoatu te _Object_ ki a _Person_ - Pass the -Object to _Person_

In the two videos that me and my buddy Phoebe have done try and spot out some of these words and go onto my site and you can check for the vocabulary here is the link.

         In this first video its kind of funny but try not to laugh ok

Art gallery / Street art

 Bula vinaka my fellow readers

Today me and my class went on a big trip into town to see some street art and to see the art gallery. All we could see where plain old graffitis but when we got to the art gallery there were many things to see and outside of the building their were a few art that had been put outside of the gallery. The art that I like from outside was this sculpture of a bull that was standing on top of a non-real piano. When my homeroom had gotten into the gallery the building was so big and we could see all around us that we were in a land of art. We all stoped to have some morning tea and then a lady named bianca came and introduced herself and told us the rules.

Once she had told us the rules we all went one by one to go and put our bags against a wall. When we had finally taken away our bags we went up stairs and looked at a tongan tapa cloth. After we had looked at that we went to go and look at some more art around the gallery. But we only looked at a few because we had to get back at school before it was home time so then we wouldn't have to keep some parents waiting. After we had looked at some art we went around and looked for the art that was on the little note book that I had been given to me by my teacher. When we were done we sat down and had some morning tea. Then when we finished looking inside of the art gallery we switched with the other group and went around town looking at some murals.

We then saw this man named Nick Lowry doing a graffiti and we saw these other construction people making a new mural. It had some birds and a hector dolphin , a seal and some plants and they where all near this ocean and beaming down was the moon , but we could only see the outlines of the mural because it was a mural that was in progress. We asked them many questions and they asked us if they could guess what species dolphin was the dolphin in the picture and one of my class mates guessed and it was a hector dolphin ( I guessed bottlenosed tho it was a good try). Once we had seen them we walked back to the gallery and hopped onto the bus and headed back to school.

Here are some of the murals that we saw if you know any of them write that down in the comments and if you can see the name of the artist who drew the art then write that down in the comments too thanks for reading BYE!.
