What is the significance in the 21st Century of our Cultural stories?
First we brainstormed what culture is and came up with lots of ideas. Culture is where you are from and what you wear and eat.
Then we thought about our own culture and talked to our parents about our traditions and heritage. I wrote a post about my family and things we like to do.
In Literacy we read and discussed myths and legends from around the world then we concentrated on Maori legends. I have written my own legend called The lonely Wizard and the Peruvian Vipertooth in my own words. Here is a link to my story. The Lonely Wizard and the Peruvian Vipertooth
We made a performance about the story Battle of the Mountains. Some students wrote the script, some students took on the job of making all the artwork, some worked hard on organising the music and others took on the role of bringing the story alive with dance and drama.
Here are a few photos of people in the hub practising for the performance.
Reflection:
For our production I contributed by writing the script and drawing the emojis and I also introduced the performance.
I’m starting to get better on the whole drawing thing.
If you watched our performance or any of the other ones please tell me what you think in the comments.
Bye
