Mid year Reflection

Reflection for Mid Year

Something I was pleased with was that my class worked together in the waka because if we did not we would will sink. I really enjoyed doing the young leader mud run because we worked together. Something I found hard was pain train because I get puffed and I get stitch. Something that made me think was reading and the different words in my book because I am not the best reader. Something I want to get better at is writing. So I can focus on my work.

Waka Ride

Reflection for Waka ride

Something I was pleased with was the my class all paddled together because if we didn't we will not go forward and back.

I really enjoyed learning was that to turn the boat because we turn ourselves around.

Something I found hard was to keep paddling because my hands were sore.  

Something that made me think was the words  and what the mean.

Something I want to get better at is keeping in time to get better I can follow the person it front of me.

Waka leader: Jim Edwards

Get ready- Kia riti

Work together and maintaining the rhythm - Tokihi

Paddle- Hoe

Stop- Whakamutu

Ta papa- Lean forward.

Tipuna (carved on waka) - ancestors (people that have came before)

Tūmatauenga - God of War

We stopped paddling and held our hoe up straight to sky. Saluting to Tūmatauenga, we did our best pūkana. Blaah! Then Jim said Kia riti and we put our paddles down . Next he said tokihi and we chant back tokihi and paddle.

Say cheese
