How Maui Slowed Tamanui Te Ra.

At the end of the last term we created stories about How Maui slowed Tamanui Te Ra. We read books about this traditional story and also looked at simple versions that other students at our school had created in the past. A few of us wanted to publish our stories for the school library. James has turned his work into an Explain Everything to share at our assembly. 

 Enjoy.

Explain Everything Space Stories

Here are some examples of this week's publishing.  Instead of writing them out and putting them up on the wall, we decided to publish using Explain everything.  We are getting quicker at making our own avatars, and backgrounds.  We are also getting good at finding quiet spots to record our stories.  We hope you enjoy them!

Duffy Theatre Term 2 2020

On Tuesday we were lucky to have a visit from the hilarious Duffy Theatre. Duffy had quite the adventure reading up on how to look after a Coggen! A Coggen is a mythical creature, part dog, part cat, and part chicken.

We learnt how reading can help us research information to help us with our daily lives. Over the holidays you may like to visit the local public library. Both Kaikohe and Kerikeri have a wonderful selection of books and it's free to join and borrow. A great wet day activity for the holidays!
