Poi Explained

 For one of our task today Rm 11 had to pick a video that we wanted to watch that included the legends and history about us Pacific Islanders !

I wanted to watch the video "Poi Explained" it was two sisters who were explaining the meaning of the Poi and why its so important in the Maori Culture!

I learnt that Poi's were first used by men back in the days and they used the Poi to strengthen their wrist when they would spin it around ! then years later the Poi was passed down to the Women .

Here is my work about the Poi,hope you all learn something from it :)

Weave a Basket in Niue !

 For Niuean Language week day 4 ! Rm 11 had to do a Ven-Diagram about the difference between the Niue Basket Weaving and a culture you pick or even your own culture . It was a bit tricky for me to discover a Tongan Basket weaving video so I came across a Video with some beautiful Cook Islanders weaving a basket !

Here is my VenDiagram about the difference and the similarities between Niue and Cook Islands Basket Weaving. 

Hope you all learn something from this

Maths Tessellation

 For Maths today we had a task called "Tiling" for this task we had to firgure out if a hexagon & a Square can make a Tessellation ! It was kind of tricky trying to figure is out but a pattern just clicked inside my mind but i dont really know if it counts as a Tessellation pattern !!

This is my maths work hope you all enjoy, Stay safe 

Reflection,Rotation & Translation - Maths

 For Maths today Rm 11 had to watch a video about Tessellation Maths ! So I did IXL and I learnt a lot of things like:

Reflection - Flips the figure over the line

Rotation - Turns the figure around the point

Translation - Slides the figure to a different location

I find it a bit tricky because it gets confusing for me ! But as long as I keep practicing i reckon I can smash this off !
