Hello everyone,
Thursday's first SLJ was to build a Dam. A Dam is something that protects the water from coming into city's, houses and to protect animals. I live in Auckland, and the Auckland Dam has been going for years. The Auckland Dam has been protecting us and the city for a years now. I searched on Google: When was the Auckland Dam Built?
You won't believe the answer, it says 1951! It's so old! Back to the task.
We had to collect stuff from our gardens and turn it into a dam.
Here is my dam that I built:
I made it out of rocks and pebbles. I was going to use sticks, but they had no place to go.
Thursday's second SLJ task was Te Huarere/The Weather.
There was a slideshow that we had to complete. There was audio things that we click on and audio comes out, so by using that, I knew all the pronunciations of the Maori words.
Here is my slideshow:
Hi,
ReplyDeleteThanks for commenting. I don't have a river next to my house, but I could try? The dam was easy, but carrying the big stones were not! I liked this activity because it was full of creativity.
Hi Fiona,
ReplyDeleteThanks for commenting. Even this was a surprise to me - I didn't know that the Auckland damn was built so long ago.
