Maths

This term we have been doing maths problem solving in little groups. Maths problem solving is when we all work out the question that the teacher has given us. Also there are some experts that work with the teacher so they can help us as well. We were learning how to measure,times tables and addition. I think my group works well because we are always helping each other and talk about the question.

Matariki

In Te Maunga we went on a trip to the Waitangi Treaty Ground with Te Tahuna for Matariki. When we got there we did planting, playing games and did some weaving. We went to the Waitangi Treaty Grounds to learn about Matariki and how it is celebrated. We played maui matau and also mu Torere. I learnt different maori games. I even got taught how to weave fish which was really cool and I found out that Matariki means Maori New year. We went to the Waitangi Treaty Grounds to learn about Matariki and how it is celebrated. At the end we had some kai..

Kaimoana

In Te Maunga we have made a google slides about Māori food. We have different names of kai, Mrs Pou brought in some food that so we can learn what sweet and sour is in Māori. Mrs Pou told us that he tino Reka means very sweet and he tino Kawa means very sour. We were doing it to see what food is Reka sweet or if they are kawa sour.
