We used the online voice recording for this and the first up was the one and only Kyle he did the introducing of the slide and told the title. Second was me Jahnaleigh and i was talking about the characters in the story. Then third was my friend Freyja and she was saying how the wife of one of the characters was heartbroken. Then fourth was me again and i was saying that they performed the karakia incorrectly. Then last it was me again and i was saying that they freezed to death and that was how to create the south island.

The Tasting Test

 Hello My Readers!

Today with my teacher Miss McNeill we did a taste test. At first i was thinking bad things was going to happen before we started. And that happen not at the start but towards the end. So we had to close our eyes and guess what we had in our hands or on the table. 

This is the list we had

1. Honey
2. Lemon
3. Ham
4. Coffee
5. Chips

The first thing we did was honey. So as i said we closed our eyes and Miss McNeill put it on the table for because it was in a cup otherwise it would be in my hand. And we had to smell. And it smelled like raisins which was not bad. But cause i do not like honey i did not like the taste. 

Second was lemon and it was very sweet. As usual i closed my eyes and got something put in my hand. I was confused until i blurted out it was lemon after i tried it. And the lemon was good to eat. Cause after that i took one more lemon to eat after the taste test.

Third i had Ham and that was probably the best out of all. Cause who doesn't like Ham. And this time instead of smelling it i ate it straight away without hesitation. Cause i knew it was Ham

Fourth we had the coffee and the coffee was suggested by my reading teacher Mrs Jones. And since kids do not like coffee. We spat it out and had water.Everyone started complaining after we went back to tell Mrs Jones off.Cause of what she suggested.And i want to say the coffee was cold.

The last was potato chips! i loved them because they were salty and nice. But the only problem was that it was very hard to crunch. 

I learnt that Children have more taste buds. Cause kids have 10,000 taste buds and adults have 5,000 taste buds . That is because adults have to much hot coffee. 

Here are some photos!

Retelling The Legend

 Hello My Readers

Last week we started retelling a legend about a bird called pouaki. Pouaki is a bird that is called a gluten. And he did not do great things.

Here is my retell

There was a bird called Pouāki that on a mountain called Mt Torlesse.There was water that had been shaped that was from that mountain to sea. And on the mountain there was Raupo,Toi Toi and Harakeke.

Every single day Pouāki would sit on that mountain and wait until hunters from a Pā would find food.The glutton would swoop down and scoop them and take them back to he/his nest and then eat them.This keeps happening everyday until Ruru (One of the people in the Pā) had a plan. 

Ruru chose 40 of the bravest men to go on this mission. Overnight Ruru and his 40 men built a cage for them.As soon as they were finished building the cage they made sure that the door was easy to shut and lock.Then Ruru waited in front of Pouāki’s nest until he had to run from Pouāki.

Ruru ran into the cage with the other 40 men and started a fight. Some people manged to cut of his two claws.By then he killed some people.Then people cut of his wings so he had no way of attacking them. By then Pouāki had killed many of the men and only a quarter men alive.Then when he couldn't attack. Ruru and his other people started to clubbed Pouāki to death.

Then they had a feeling that Pouāki had children.So they climbed Mt Torlesse and halfway through they heard this beautiful noise.They thought it was Pouāki little's morning for them. So they memorize the sound and keeped climbing. As they reached the top, without hesitation they killed the little ones. Then after that they could catch the food they wanted and eat.They lived happily ever after.
