Activity 2: Exploring Our Roots

This was the second Summer Learning Journey activity for the teaser week. For this activity we had to create a Pepeha in Maori, of our background. We looked at an example of a what was expected, and had to make ours more interesting. I decided to make it personal, by adding a background of the sky tower and Tongan patterns as the frame.

Maori Pepeha

This week we had Maori with Ms Whaea Odi. For this lesson we had to make a google presentation. Today we would be writing our pepeha but a little different. The first slide would be the title of the presentation then the next slide would be the first part of the "pepeha" and for this we said a greeting and our name in maori. Ms Whaea Odi helped us and told us what to write. The next slide was our location in moari. The slide after that talked about our parents names and the last one was the names of our sister and brothers (siblings). We then had to add photos in each slide. I wasn't able to get photos of my parents. I also added a slide at the end which showed my complete pepeha all together.
