Gifts from the sun

This week I have been reading a story called Gifts from the sun. I have created a Google drawing to show what I learnt.

Getting kaimoana in the holidays

In the holidays I went up north with my father and my friends to get kina and to fish. My day was spent collecting kina and it was fun and also hard.

When you get kina you have to be careful because you use a knife. The kina are stuck to the rocks.

When you eat kina and put it back into the sea, the sea will wash the shell away. It is better to get the big ones because they have a lot of kina eggs. The smaller kina do not have much you can eat. 

My day was enjoyable and I loved spending it at the beach. 

I used Stupeflix to make a DLO about my learning in Science intensive

For the first three weeks of the term we are learning about animals especially dogs. This is my favourite dog the Siberian Husky.

Visit to Glenbrae Kids

On Tuesday 28 March my class went to Glenbrae Kids to visit. When we arrived we had to sit on the mat and wait for the little children to come to the mat.

Glenbrae Kids is a very busy place with heaps of kids. Some are babies and some are bigger. First we sang a greeting song to the kids called Toro Mai. Then we had to pick a partner to play with.

My partner was my brother Lorenzo. He is three years old. With Lorenzo, we played in the park then we went inside and painted with the other children.

When it was time to go, we all went back to the mat and returned our partners to their teacher. When we left I was happy because I played with my brother at his school.
