Samoan White Sunday

As a part of my care award Ellenora and I  have presented a cultural presentation to the class. This presentation counts as a Confidence award. Our presentation was about Samoan White Sunday. White Sunday is important to us because we get to spend time with our  family, Relatives and the Samoan community. Our favourite part of White Sunday is the feast at the end of the day. 

Laika the Dog

Today for reading we created DLO's about Laika the dog. Laika was a dog that was sent to space to orbit the earth. We read the book called "The space race"  It had information about Sputnik 1, 2 and 3. In one part of the story it told me about Sputnik 2, and on sputnik 2 they carried along with them a dog called Laika. Laika was sent to space and given a carefully planned meal to send her to sleep. Some people say that she died soon after take off. 

On the DLO I included the timeline of the event that happens. I included a Glossary of some words, and a labelled diagram. Also included on the DLO was an explanation of Laika.
