Day 2: It’s All in a Day’s Work
Activity 1: A House or a Home?
In the 1800s, most Māori lived in villages called pa. Each village had many buildings – kauta where people cooked, pataka where they stored goods and wharepuni where the Māori slept. A traditional wharepuni had a thatched roof and walls made of timber, fern, rushes and bark. Look at the picture below of a traditional wharepuni. Does it look like your house?
1. My House has a roof and walls and the wharepuni has walls and a roof.
2. The wharepuni has people staying in it and My house has people staying in it.
Activity 2: The Rules of Engagement
What is your dream job? Draw a picture of yourself doing your dream job and post it on your blog. You could be a doctor, an actor or even a zookeeper! I have drawn myself taking a picture of a beautiful castle in Poland because I would love to become a travel blogger and photographer one day.
I would like to be a youtuber because I would like to inspire people and so people can enjoy watching me and that was my dream job ever since I started watching YouTube.
Kia Ora Christopher,
ReplyDeleteMy name is Jordan and I'm the Kootuitui (Papakura, Auckland) cluster manager. Alongside Billy and Jade, I'll be commenting on your blog posts :)
I'll start with Activity 1: A House or a Home.
Thanks very much for completing this activity and for comparing your house to a wharepuni. I see that you've given us two similarities, but what two differences can you think of? If you can tell me two differences between your house and a wharepuni, I'll be able to reward you with full points!
Activity 2: The Rules of Engagement.
I like how you've included the YouTube logo in your drawing, and how you've drawn the camera just by using the line tool in Google Draw— well done!
I see that it's quite common for kids to want to become YouTubers, and I can understand why. I've been following Jimi Jackson for a while on instagram because he's hilarious— but not only is he hilarious, he makes a lot of money just for posting videos.
How do you think you'll inspire kids?
Keep up the great work.
Cheers,
Jordan.
Hi Christopher,
ReplyDeleteI liked reading about how you want to be a youtuber when you are older. I want to start a YouTube channel for my scooter tricks. I have not thought about turning it into a job. But it is something I will probably think about now.
I look forward to reading more posts about your Summer Learning Journey.
Sam.
