Maori

This week was our first lesson on Maori. Mrs Whaea Odie read us a book to us. She read the book to us 2 terms ago. We then got to watch a video of a man drawing in sand Link. After we watched the video we got to learn a new song called Hoki mai e tama ma. We learnt it by looking at lyrics and listening to the song. The Song was very catchy so i caught onto it pretty fast. After that we had to get our Computers and search up Rohe of NZ. We found a link to a site that showed us places of where the Maori tribes stayed. We learnt that they stayed near the sea because there was food for them to eat. They would sometimes find coconut trees and grab the coconuts off the tree. Because it has coconut water in it and it has the white food part in it. So the Maori tribe keep it in the back of their canoe so if they really need something to drink and eat they would have the coconut.
