Inquiry Movie.

Kia ora, the theme for the term is Karawhiua. For this theme, we had to learn a new skill. The skill that I tried to learn was throwing a dart at the bullseye. I liked doing this skill except for the fact that I didn’t have a dart board or darts. I will definitely try this again another time but please check out my video. Thank you.

Why all NZers should learn how to speak Te Reo Maori.

Why all New Zealanders should learn how to speak Te Reo Maori? 
Kia ora, my name is Neomi and today I will be explaining why all New Zealanders should learn how to speak Te Reo Maori.Firstly, I will be writing down what Te Reo Maori is and how we can help to keep the language alive.
Te reo Maori is an official language of New Zealand/Aotearoa. Did you know that there are many people in different parts of New Zealand who have no idea how to speak the language because they weren’t taught it when they were younger? To keep the language alive, we can start by learning it ourselves so that we can teach it to younger people.  
Secondly ,I think we should all learn how to speak Te reo Maori because it would be easier for us. Not just so that we can understand the language, but so we can communicate with people who only speak Te Reo. 
Lastly, I think that it’s great if everyone learnt Te reo because the Maori fought for the land and by learning Te reo, we’d be showing a whole lot of respect. By learning how to speak Te reo, fluently or not. We’d be protecting and respecting the language.
In conclusion, all New Zealanders should learn how to speak Maori because it’s respectful and we would be keeping the language alive and protecting it. We would also be able to communicate with people who only speak Te reo Maori.

Speech.

 

Kia ora , Talofa lava, Malo e lelei, Bula vinaka, Kia orana and greetings to all. This term team 5 had to write down speeches and present them in week 6 and 7. I presented my speech in week 7 and the topic for my speech was “Why marine pollution is bad for the environment”. My favourite part about presenting my speech was when I got the confidence to speak louder and give eye contact to the people listening. Some emotions that I felt were, excited, nervous and anxious.Please check out my video and leave a positive comment, thank you.

Born to run.

Malo e lelei today for literacy class my group and I, Kuaka did this weeks task called “Born to run”,  which is a task that we had to do. First we had to read an article based on a man named Arthur Lydiard, who is a New Zealand coach. The article is about Arthur and how he used to be a runner, running marathons until he realised he was unfit. He started running 24 kilometres but it still wasn’t enough to him so he started running 400 kilometres every week.  He then became a coach and taught 2 famous athletes who are, Peter Snell and Murray Halberg. Please check out my work above and leave a positive comment if you like.

 

 

Setting Smart Goals.

Talofa Lava, today for literacy we had to set our Smart Goals! We had to pick a Goal that we wanted to accomplish by the end of week 5 this term , and write down how we are going to achieve it. My Smart Goal for this term is being able to throw a dart at a bullseye. I will try to accomplish this challenge by practicing every week!

Paris Olympics 2024 Inquiry task.

Kia Ora, today in literacy class I decided to finish off my Inquiry task that I started on the first day of term 3. We had to research to find the answers to 14 questions about the Olympics. This task was very tricky because I had trouble finding most of the answers. Check out my work above :).
