Summer Learning Journey W1 D2 BA

For this summer learning journey activity, the task was to: On your blog, post a picture of your favourite meal. Be sure to tell us what it is and why it is your favourite. You could also include the recipe if you have it so that we can all try it!

My favorite meal is fish and chips. I like it a lot because it's a family meal that we usually buy together and I like how it tastes (especially when you put a ton of tomato sauce on it).

For this summer learning journey activity, the task was to: What is your dream job? Draw a picture of yourself doing your dream job and post it on your blog. You could be a doctor, an actor or even a zookeeper!

My dream job is being a sailor or someone to works out at sea as I love being out in the ocean (swimming or in a boat).

Similarities:

Differences:
  • The wharepuni has carvings and my house doesn't
  • The wharepuni's roof is really low

Watch this short video of a Waka Ama race. On your blog tell us whether you would like to be in a Waka Ama race one day. Why or why not?

I would definitely like to be in a Waka Ama race one day. It looks really fun competing with other people to see who is the fastest. It would be awesome to race with my family or friends.

For this summer learning journey activity, the task was to:

Imagine that you were on board one of the wakas. On your blog, write a short letter to a friend telling them about your voyage to New Zealand. In the letter be sure to tell them how you feel about moving to a new country. If it was me, I would have felt really nervous…

Dear Johnny,
The voyage to this new land was hard. Most of our food had expired before we were even halfway here so most of us are hungry. The journey was also cold, with many storms that soaked us from head to toe. Hopefully we will be able to find some food in this new country. Goodbye for now.
