Maori Language Week

For Maori language week we learned the Maori body song which is this :

Mahunga, pakihiwi, poku, hope, wae wae

Mahunga, pakihiwi, poku, hope, wae wae

Mahunga, pakihiwi, poku, hope, wae wae

Taringa, karu, ihu, waha e
We had to teach it to Room 5 and we also had to teach them what it means in english

Mahunga means head, pakihiwi means shoulder, puko means tummy, hope means hips, wae wae means legs, taringa means ear, karu means eyes, ihu means nose and last of all waha e means mouth. 

My Speech

on Wednesday 6th  of June room12 presented their discovery speeches I was really nervous about my speech, my speech was about Thomas Edison. I think I did well using my clarity of voice, memorizinig my speech and having a prop. Improvements I think I have to make more informations about how he did his inventions and making more eye contact and what I learnt about Thomas Edison is that never give up easily.                                                      

Term 3

This term I'm looking forward to focusing on Olympics, the Disco and Cross Country training. I want to improve on doing my work fast and my maths. One thing I would like to do is to get our 20 marbles so we can have a game or something else.
