Tivaevae

We made Tivaevae patterns.  Tivaevae are beautiful bedspreads from the Cook Islands. We read about what Tivaevae is and what it means.  'Tivai' means to sew or patch.  On many islands, it is spelt as tivaivai.  Here are our Tivaevae patterns we made out of paper. 

Glorious Geo Poems

 We have been learning about Geo Poetry. Geo poetry follows a set structure to create a poem about a certain place. This was a bit tricky at first but we continued to persevere and have come up with some amazing poems.

Have a look at some of our stunning Geo Poems below:

Middle school playground 

Excitement, happiness, bright and sunny

Home of slides, rock climbing and monkey bars

Lover of people and peace

Feels wind and sun's brightness

Needs more people on the playground

Gives joy and happiness

Fears broken parts and sadness

That would like to see more people

Hartaj's Story about his dragon Friend:

I have a little dragon whose name is  Light Ball .

Light Ball loves to eat chicken ball

Light Ball and me love to play fetch 

We love to sit on the couch and watch tv

We love to drink hot chocolate 

When it rains we love to play in the rain.

Miller's Mystery Egg Writing

The Weird Egg

One day my doorbell rang and it was a package for me. In the package it was another package and in that package there was a package shaped like an egg. So I opened the package and in the package there was an egg. Then the egg hatched and it was a dragon. The dragon had black scales, a golden horn and the inside of the dragon's wings were red.The middle of him and under his tail is golden. And he has a red fin down his back. Now I have a dragon I don't know  what to do with him. Then he spat out a portal and it was right under me. ‘What ! it’s under me aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. Where are we?”suddenly the dragon started to talk. Then I fainted for one hour. When I woke up now I was in Fiji so I caught a flight  back to New Zealand. When I got back, “listen up dragon your name is Grindal” I said. “I will give you treats if you do not spit portals''. So we went outside and there they were, his family. He went home with them and lived happily ever after. THE END

Cooper's Mystery Egg Writing:

One day when I woke up I had a package. I went to open it and in it, there was an egg. It had yellow and green dots on it. It was bumpy and small. I took it to my bedroom and looked at it but it started to hatch! Then it popped out of the egg and it was a dragon! It had green scales with yellow bumpy spots. So I ran with all my energy to my mum and dad. But before I could get there it ran out of my hands and started making some problems. It was running around breaking things and messing things up. Then it started going to the fridge. It wanted to open the fridge and so I opened it and it wanted sausages. So I made it follow me to a cage and put some sausages in the cage and every day I fed it. As long as I fed it it stayed well behaved and it became our family pet. THE END.  

  

Our Amazing Animal Mixes

 This was a very popular task today! Lots of our class took part in creating an animal mix from 2 separate animals. You could mix the two animals using different parts from each animal to come up with a completely new creature.  Check out some of our creations below - keep checking in as Mrs Zandbergen will add more as they come in!

If you could combine two animals to create a new creature what would they be? Could you come up with a new name for this creature?
