Summer Learning Journey: Day #2 - It's All In A Days Work!

Hi guys, Day #2 Summer Learning Journey. Here's my activity I've done....

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. So they lived very differently from us, now these days.

What are two similarities and two differences between a wharepuni and your house?










Two similarities about My House (in Samoa) and the Wharepuni House ( Maori sleeping house:
1# Roof - My house: Thatched Roof
Roof- Wharepuni: Thatched Roof
2# Floor - My house: Earth Floor
Floor - Wharepuni: Earth Floor
Two differences about My House and the Wharepuni House:
1# Walls - My house: Wood and brick
Walls - Wharepuni: Timber and Tree Fern
2# Window - My house: Glass and metal
Window - Wharepuni: No window's
There are my differences and my similarities between My house and a Wharepuni. Thank you!

Activity #2
*The Rules of Engagement🤔🤔
During the early years in New Zealand, men and women would often marry at a young age. Women were expected to have babies and remain in the home caring for their children. Few, if any, left home in search of work. Men, on the other hand, were expected to work outside of the home.

These days, we don’t have the same strict expectations about work. Girls and boys can choose their own path in life. In fact, Rachel.Williams was lucky enough to go to university and to follow my dream of becoming a teacher!

Have you ever thought about your dream Job when you grow up? A report, a artist, an actors or even somebody who could traveler the world discovering new things.

Well, I have. What I want to be for my dream job, is a Doctor and I was asked to draw a picture of me doing my dream job for this activity. Here it is...

This is me as a Doctor, Inside Auckland Hospital. I wanted to be a Doctor, because I love to think of other people before myself.

I want to save people lives, thousands of them. I want to make sure, that every little kiwi and old kiwi in this world has a healthy heart and is healthy.

That's why I want to become a doctor!

Activity #3

*Special Meals

Back in the 1800s, most Māori ate a simple diet. They ate foods that they could catch in the water (eg. fish) or grow on the land (eg. kumara). They did not have access to a supermarket to buy food for their meals! Speaking of meals, what is your favourite meal? Rachel's is wood-fired pizza. Yum! 😋😋😋😋

Hmmmm, Whats my favourite meal???. OH!, I know its Corn Beef and Spaghetti that's my favourite meal in whole entire world. My mum mostly made it for me (her cooking is very, very good btw!)

I love this meal so much, because the taste of it is so juicy and taste. Its what my granddad use to make for me and my family back in Samoa, he had taught it to my mum. So it's like a family meal.Delicious😋!!

Here is the recipe for it: Corn Beef and Spaghetti😋😋

That's all for 2day, but there be more tommrow!!

Byeeee. Thank You!
