Disconnected Activities - Te Whare Tapawha

Disconnected Activities - Te Whare Tapawha - Te Wiki o Te Reo Maori

One of the disconnected tasks this week was to make a Whare Tapawha using sticks. Here is the first submission that was created in record time. I was very surprised at how fast this was completed. Until I opened it. Tau ke!

Here is a quote of the text accompanying the Whare Tapawha creation.

"I got lucky and found these sticks"

This was a big improvement from the whare tapatoru previously submitted

Quote: "I got lucky and found these sticks" If you look closely you can see 4 sticks. One for each side of the house. This is a huge inprovemnet on the whare tapatoru that was submitted before this one.

Tennis

This is our second tennis lesson with Lucian. We practiced our forehand returns. We enjoyed our lesson with Lucian.

Problem Solving and Building things

One of our tasks for EOTC Week was to set a building goal, work as a team to problem solve to achieve our building goals. We also spent some time problem solving as individuals. Miss Laxa set 4 tasks based on a television show from both the Philippines and USA. One task was to balance a can on it's side by altering the water levels. Other tasks include catching ping pong balls in cups, building a domino style track using CD cases and directing a balloon using only an air pump.

Swimming

We were lucky enough to receive professional swimming lessons by qualified swimming instructors. We spent 2 weeks learning many swimming skills. This will be followed up by another 2 weeks of lessons later in the year.
