Your work is certainly easy to read, Shanan. I like the reasons for why you think the Waka are significant - could there also be another reason? Maybe you could also think about how the missionaries influenced the Maaori community? A well presented piece of work. Tino pai mahi.
This is my 100 word challenge. The prompt was …so, what lies ahead of… Run. A blur of greens and browns passed me as I ran. Run. It was life or death, and we chose life. Run. I stopped, dead in my tracks. The puny sticks under my feet crunched under my weight. Lost in thought, I could hear a faint ‘keep running Esie,’ It got louder and louder, till I followed the instructions. Run. The light peeping in from the foliage above was limited, we had to get out of the forest before the darkness fell. So...what lies ahead of us? That’s a complicated question, the answer for which we know, and you to find out.
Reading In 7DM This past few weeks in 7DM, we have been learning about 'The Outside Experience, Managing Self'. We read 3 stories called: Outward Bound , Dear Mum , and The Big Jump! Outward Bound and Dear Mum were about two people who were recounting about their experience on an Outward Bound. The Big Jump was about Big Daddy (Charlie) being too scared to do the flying fox over his camp. He was supposed to be a tough bully, but really he was quite chicken! I reckon these books are a good motivation for us to try everything at camp and have FUN! Maybe someday I'll be lucky enough to experience an Outward Bound ! (If you click on the outward bound before in blue, you can access REAL outward bound information on a NZ outward bound website)
The prompt was …but where would we hide it all?… Heart hammering. Knees shaking. Hands trembling. I push my glasses back to perch on my nose. 'STEVEN, BACK TO THE GRIND NOW!' I hear a familiar booming voice ring through my ears. 'THE SNAKES ARE DEPENDING ON YOU!' Yes. A gang. Now, you wouldn't expect me, a nerdy individual to be in a gang. I don't even want to be in this darn gang. Stupid fathers and being an 'heir' to the 'throne'. 'STEVEN WE DON'T HAVE MUCH TIME!' Oops. Rattlesnake hands me a huge rucksack big enough to accommodate a body. Wait . . . a body? The suspense is killing me. Stupid 'no questions' rule. ‘But dad . . . . where would we hide it all?’
