Maori Gods

WALT: Create a quality blog post for an online audience, using correct sentence punctuation 

We have been learning about Maori gods and we decided on what they mostly behave like is what the emotion was. There were 6 gods we learnt about.

[Yellow] 
Rongo-Ma-Tane- [is happiness and peacefulness] Rongo-Ma-Tane is the god of peace and cultivated food.

[Orange]
Maui- [is cheeky or hoha] 

[Purple]
Ruaumoko- [is annoyed or frustrated] Ruaumoko is the god of volcanoes.

[Red]
Tumatauenga- [is furious/fuming] Tumatauenga is the god of war.

[Light Blue]
Tawhirimatea- [Has no control and is lost] Tawhirimatea is the god of weather.

[Dark Blue]
Tangaroa- [Do-over or start again] Tangaroa is the god of the sea.

Miss fleet lined the Maori gods in that exact order and asked us a question like how do you feel about art or sports and other things like that. And what god we lined up behind was what we felt like about that sort of thing.

What Is Respect?

WALT: To make a quality blog post for an online audience

Respect is something we use everyday. Respect is showing manners in a dignified sort of way. Respect is in a conversation showing that your engaged in the conversation by making eye contact and facing your whole body to them instead of facing your back to the speaker. And as for language when someone is doing something annoying or irritating you don't have to yell at them, even at times this can be really hard but you still have to show determination and perseverance to talk to them politely and tell them to stop. You should show respect to everyone everywhere you go, like in a classroom environment you would show respect to your peers and your teachers and even at home you should be showing respect to your parents or who you live with and your siblings (If you have some). Respect is something that will probably help you in life, as if you be disrespectful to everyone then probably they'll be disrespectful back, but if you try to be respectful to everyone then they will probably repay it back to you.

Reflection: We had to retell the creation story in our own words it took us a whole week but I thought it was fun to retell the story using slides. I worked collaborative with Eva. 

First Day At Tech Recount

WALT: Use correct sentence punctuation in our blog posts and comments.

On our first day of tech we took a bus ride to Kataia Intermediate, all the year 8's went to cooking class and the year 7's got split up. Half of them went to wood-work and the rest went to technology. I was one of those of those people who went to technology and our teacher was Mr. Russel we were going to make this specific type of block where you can put your pencils in because the holes where pencil-shaped. And there's also a gap where you can fit your phone in because the gap is specifically designed for your phone but we haven't finished.
