Our task was to make a little video on why Matariki should be a Public holiday.I really loved this task because I can work with friends and we can have our own sayings in the conversation. Matariki is also a time of Celabrating with loved one and a time of reflection for the maori New year.

The inpact of Volcanos
On Wensday my group and I made a Google DLO telling us everything about Whakaari White Island. Whakaari White island is a volcano that erupted in 2019 and killed 90 people. People also said that 90 people died during the eruption because of how much toxic gas the volcano was realeasing.

The thing that I enjoyed about this book work was I got to work with friends and share our answers about the word problems and Think about real situations, like sharing candies, buying toys, or running races. Then, turn those situations into questions asking how many candies, toys, or how far someone ran.
Why Maungarei Sleeps … Pourquoi Story
Back, far back, in the mists of time when the world was very young there was a massive mountain that was awakened because the dinosaurs woke her from her slumber. As she woke up she was mad.Her rage took over her emotions and was sending so much steam to the surfers. After those earthquakes she sent a big black cloud of ash and gas to the air. All of the dinosaurs ran to find a new home.Then she erupted and sent so much magma to the earth’s surface and scared the other Maunga away to find a new home.
Her rage took over her temper and her character. She was so loud and her other Maunga were just ignoring her and she had enough of this and screamed at the other Maunga and they ran away. She regretted her actions and she was now lonely. She slept to relieve the Irrational from being abandoned by the other Maunga
After her fierce volcanic heart broke she erupted and sent the other animals far far away. But the other animals knew that deep down somewhere in her she had a good heart and they also knew that she was a strong leader and A peace maker throughout the land. She could not control her rage. She was trying to fight her anger but she sent a full blast of the magma to the earth’s land.
Then after her eruption she realized she was alone and she regretted her actions and now she is lonely. But then in the midst of the ash cloud it was the other animals and she said to them please forgive me for my actions. “I am sorry for burning your home” .They replied “Yes we forgive you”
but we suggest that you should get some rest” replied the other animals.After the other animals accepted her apology and forgave her for her actions and they all became good friends.Over time as Mt Maugrei was resting the people of the land were no longer afraid of the fierce Mt Maugrei.
While she was sleeping the world was a peaceful world that lived in harmony. Maungraei’s Rage sleeps at the bottom of her fierce heart that is sleeping but you never know that she could wake up again and make an even bigger magma flow.
I used Adobe Express to help me genarate a image that go’s with my porquoi story. I chose this image because I like to cool backround and becuase it looks like people could live on the island but they might not know what the mountain. I also like this image because if people were to live on the island after the eruption people could live in harmony.

Reading About Volcanos
Last week for our Reading task was to create a slide show about volcanso and what we know about volcanos. The thing that I loved about the task was we could talk to each other and ask for some good ideas for the slide show.

Volcanos are big mountains made of fire called volcanoes. Explain how they can erupt and make hot lava come out. They are special mountains that can sometimes cause trees, animals, and people to move away so they are safe. Volcanoes are big mountains that can explode and make lava flow.
Here Is onw of the types of volcanos.
Sheld Volcano: A shield volcano is a tall mountain made of melted rock that flows out slowly and spreads out flat like a shield. It looks like a big, gently sloping hill.
ANZAC POPPYS DLO

Last Week for our reading we learned about poppys. We had to research about poppys and we had to go in groups for this research. We had a piece of newsprint papper and had to write down the ideas that were gonna research about. When we finished we made a Google Sildes telling us about Poppys. After we persented our reading DLO we got some feedback from Mr Carol. Some thing that I found interesting was that some of the fallen soldiers die on top of the Poppys that were in the Poppys.
Samuel Marsden Podcast
For Litreracy we have been using our Inquiry knowlege to write questions for Reverend Samuel Marsden. We have asked Samuel Marsden to politely come and asnwer the questions that we have created. I enjoyed this activity because we had a lot of fun recording and collaborating as a team.
One thing that we have learnt is that when you have more expression towards what you are saying you look and sound more excited and intresting and you attract more people.
