Kai e pai ana ahau

 Last week my class had to do a slide about foods we like and foods we dislike. We did this for Maori language week. We had to write it all in Maori. Firstly we had to write at least 4 foods we like and at least 4 foods we dislike. We used the Maori dictionary to help us find out the Maori word for the foods we like. Here is mine.

Limerick

 The fox and his socks

There once was a cunning fox

And he loved his wacky socks

A duck with a pen

And three singing men

They all got in trouble with the cops

The singing cow

There once was a singing Cow He was always asking how

A fish with a frog 

And a croaking hog

They were always saying wow

Book Week

For our school once a year we have a whole week based around book week.

On Monday we got told that there was 5 golden tickets hidden around the whole school we had a week to find all five. If you found one you went to the library and got a prize. We also found out that if you issued a book you could take a guess to try guess how many lollies were in the jar. Whoever had the exact amount or whoever the closest was would win the whole jar. We were also told we had to design our door. My class chose Peter Pan.

On Tuesday if we went to the Library you could get free books and take as many as you want some kids took boxes full of books they were all free they were just giving out lots of books.

On Wednesday it was wacky Wednesday we had to dress up wacky and be in our house colours we also had to plan a wacky walk/ dance based on our colour. Im green so we did paint the town green. We won the trophy for that day. Also on Wednesday you could go to the library and make puppets for the puppet show on Thursday.  

On Thursday was the day of the puppet show. Anyone in the school could go to the library to watch it. The puppets were made out of paper and they were shaped like crayons  with a Popsicle stick on the back.  The puppet show was about the day the crayons quit. It was really funny to watch because the other kids had to hold up the colours of the puppets talking and shake them around. Also on that day was the day the doors got judged. We couldn't find out until Friday tho.

On Friday it was book character day. You had to dress up as a book character who you wanted to be. I dressed up as Tweedle Dee from Alice in wonderland.  We had to meet in the hall at 9:00am And someone held up a piece of paper for each class that had to come up. If your class was selected to come up you had to walk up to the stage and say which book character you are. The teachers also chose some kids to give books depending on how there outfit looks. It was really fun to see all the different outfits and choices for how they would look. Also in the hall the winners of the door displays were announced. Sadly our class came second place but it was still really fun! Here are some photos of our door and me and my friends book character outfits. 

The is me and my friends dressed up as Alice in wonderland characters. The first girl is dressed up as the Queen of Hearts. The second one is dressed up as Alice in wonderland and the other two is me and my other friend dressed up as Tweedle Dee and Tweedle Dum. 

These are all photos of our door. They were combined with two classes mine and the class next door. All of this was made by the kids the teachers helped with some of it tho.
