Ta moko

Hey guys,

 This term for inquiry we are learning about different cultures. For one of our tasks, we had to pick and learn about either Ta moko, Korowai/Kakahu, or the Haka. I chose to do the Ta moko.                            The Ta moko is a traditional Maori tattoo that is done on your face. We had to write the present vs the past for the materials used, design, and why it's done. The Ta moko used to be done by Chisels dipped in dark pigment, now it is done with needles. The designs used to be based on Maori tribes, now they are done base on Your family, prosperity, travel, strength, and your career path.

Here is the slide with my work on it:

Literacy - Antagonists and Protagonists

 Hey guys, 

How were your holidays? I did not do a lot in the holidays but for our first week back at school, we have been doing lots of different things like athletic practice, kiwi buddies, and more. This term for literacy we have been stating to write kid's books. Before we started forming what our story was about we learned about Protagonists and Antagonists and what makes them either the protagonist or the antagonist. For our task, we had to find 4 stories and write the antagonist and the protagonist and why they are the antagonist or protagonist. I did the three little pigs, Cinderella, Snow White and the seven dwarfs, and sleeping beauty
