SLJ - Day 4 - Week 4 - Activity 1

SLJ - Day 4 - Week 4 - Activity 1 

Activity 1 - Watch the trailer for Moana and then write a summary of the movie on your blog. If you’ve seen the movie, you can include your favourite part! Tell us as much as you can about the movie. What is it about? Who are the main characters in the movie? What do they do in the movie? Where do they go?

Moana is one of my favourite Disney movies because of the characters personality. My all time favourite character is Hay Hay because even though he is a chicken he knows whether he is on land or water. Even though Maui is known as the guy who stole the heart of Tefiti deep down he is a good person. My favourite part in the movie is when Hay Hay finds out he is on the water instead of the land. My favourite song is Maui - Your welcome and Tamatoa - Shiny.

 

Summer Learning Journey Day 4 Activity 2 and 3

Summer Learning Journey Day 4 Activity 2 and 3 

Activity 2 - Imagine that you are a student in the 1980s and you’re about to graduate from high school. Where would you like to go on your big OE? On your blog tell us which country you would visit and give us three (3) reasons for your choice. Find some pictures on the internet of things that you would like to see and do in this country.

I have many places in mind where I would want to visit for a while but I would want to go to South Korea because they are very smart and have good education. If I did go to South Korea I would want to go and see how they create technology. I would also go to South Korea to see what famous people live there..
 

I would next visit America because I would want to visit all the theme parks like WALT Disney World. I would also want to go there because I would want to see if there food is different or better than New Zealand food. Last but no last I would want to go there and see if I would met any celebrates while I'm there.
 
The last place I would want to visit is Australia and see how the weather is over there. I would also want to go and see if I would meet the cast of one of my recent favourite TV show, which is Dance Academy because it was filmed in Australia Sydney.  I would also want to see if they teach any different to New Zealand and see if they are smarter than New Zealand people/ Kiwis.






Activity 3 - In 1982, Te Karere, a Māori-language news show premiered on television. It has continued to stream live on TV to this day. If you would like to watch it, turn on TV One at 3:55 p.m. each weekday and you will see it. The show is often hosted by a man named Scotty Morrison. 


Imagine that you were Scotty Morrison and you were able to interview anyone you wanted. I would choose to interview our new prime minister, Jacinda Ardern. I’d love to know what it is like to be the Prime Minister.  What about you? Who would you choose to interview and why? What would you like to find out?

If I was Scotty Morrison I would want to interview Taika Waititi because he  directed one of my favourite  Movie Thor - Ragnarok. I would want to find out who inspired him to become a director and how did he feel when he first meet big stars like Chris Hemsworth and many more.??

Day 4 -  Hitting the high note

Activity 1 - Use Google to research traditional Māori Waiata. Listen to a number of Waiata and read the lyrics. On your blog tell us which one of the waiata you found you like the most. Why do you like it?

The songs I liked

Poi E

He Honore

Ka Pioioi

Pai mai

I enjoy listening to these songs because we sing them at school and they are very catchy to me. Theses songs just sometimes calm me down and when I listen to songs in a different language I feel like I'm learning a new language.

Activity 2 -Choose one game, and on your blog, tell us the (i) name of the game, (ii) the goal or purpose of the game, and (iii) two rules.

Matimati - Taonga Tākaro 

The goal or main purpose of this game is to Read opponents movements and learn to evade in disguise attacking movements. Two rules that I learned in this game was that you have to have your two feet remain grounded. Another rule that I learnt was that when the striker, strikes that they must have an open palm. 

Activity 3 - On your blog, rank the performances from your favourite (#1) to least favourite (#3) and tell us why you gave them the ranking that you did.

Te puku o Te ika - 9/10 - I thought that this was my favorite out of all of them because was it was dedicated to someone and they sang from the heart for that person. 

Tamatea Arikinui - 8/10 -  I put as second because it was very close to number 1 but I decided to put this as second because they had a lot of dancing more than the first video. The girls and the boys also took turns to sing.

Te iti kahurangi - 8/10 -  This was my put as third because I couldn't have two seconds and if I did then this would also be second. This song was just so touching to me and made he start to just tear up. This song is more second than it is third.
