sticks and we don't get to play the drums and then we go back to class

Loving, kind lion’s sitting in the sun
Increasing their body together
On top of the cave is fat Pumba
Now the lion cub is born
Knowing it’s here the new king is born
Independent king ready and away
Now Mufasa is dead
Going to be king the lion cub said
I want you to notice the interesting words I used
I got some feedback on my poem which I liked that it
describes the movie-Tyrell I think you should change the
ready and away to ready to rule- whea vicky

This helped me because I didn’t know some words,
but then I figured it out at the end. There was a hard word
for me was angrily. It was sad when I felt emotions with
the character in my story, I understood it better.

Polyfest learning story
‘’Line up’’ shouted Kate.
I’m in the changing room waiting for my dress for the Cook Island group.
I’m am nervous but ready to perform for my family. I need to smile and dance.
I’m excited as well. The last few practices have been hard but I got the moves
done. In the last practices I got my actions right then I worked on smiling,
I pretty much know all my actions. I like my costume and it fits me perfectly.
When I perform I did my actions at the right time. When I spin around in
my dress felt like I was on a big cloud. My favorite part was dancing to
the drums. Learning the actions were easy.

I was getting ready for kapa haka and when I got my dress I needed to find a
place
to put my bag. I was looking for my feather. I asked my friends
‘’where did they get the black lipstick?’. They said, “It’s in the bathroom.”
When I performed with my group I felt proud and strong.

When I performed with my group I felt proud and strong.
On the night, I was changed and ready to perform on stage.
I was excited and nervous. I was on the stage. The music started, I danced
and did my actions. I also smiled. I had butterflies in my tummy. In my Cook
Island group, I couldn't find my dress but I found it. I was talking to my friends
that I was scared but I did it. In the Cook Island group, I thought I did well
because I swung my hips and danced.

After my Cook Island group, I went to Kapa Haka I. First I took off my Cook
Island dress in the bathroom, I put on my Kapa Haka dress. I went into the
meetup space to get my black lipstick and got my band and feather. We were
all lined up in your lines and practicing our song and actions. I felt scared but
proud of myself for doing kapa haka. We were on stage coming in, I got in line.
‘’Whakapiri’’ said Praise. We sang and did the haka as well as our action song.
At the end, the whole school sang We stand up we stand tall. Then my mum
came and picked me up at the end of the performance. My mum said that
the dancing was lovely and beautiful.

Padlet Learning Story
We have been learning about a new tool to show our learning. Our tool was a padlet.
You can make arrows that connect ideas or pieces of information.
You can add pictures to show you idea or information.

We have used a padlet to communicate our ideas about the stories we've learnt about Porirua.
We've been thinking about how knowing our past helps us prepare for our future.

I made some connections on Lijacana’s padlet.
I connected to New Zealand because that where we live, also because George Gray wanted our land.
I connected to land/whenua because it connects to New Zealand and the treaty.

I connected to the treaty because when you sign something, you have to keep your promise
just like we did in mindfulness.

My Choice Learning
Kapahaka
Kapa Haka is a thing that I love to do now because it’s all about culture and who you are.
It was the thing I loved ever since last year in kapa haka. I enjoyed it but when I first started I
was not sure about it but I pushed through and I did. It takes a lot of effort. It was a challenge
for me. You need to be strong and disciplined when your kapa haka teacher matua Todd is there
he also is tall and maori. When you go to kapa haka you need to have sharp actions and
a pukana face with a loud voice. There's also this song we just learnt and it called E ng iwi e.
It’s a maori song and I’m in the junior kapa haka because there was too much kids in kapa
haka so we had to split into two groups.
