My letter about my Grandmother.

Dear Mrs Baker,

My name is Tamika and I am writing to tell you why my wonderful grandmother deserves to win the grandparent’s prize.

Well my grandmother is young aged in the 60’s and is full Tongan and speaks fluent Tongan as well.

Her full name is Tasi Tamale and loves to worship the lord and also loves all of her children, grand-children and her great-grandchildren too.

I know even though she may have a lot of business to do, she always makes everything possible to be there at concerts at school, graduations or special events for everyone of my sisters, brothers and me.

My grandmother is a very welcoming, hospitable loving woman and a supportive grandmother.

She treats everyone respectfully and equally.

Even though she may speak fluent Tongan, she tries her best to speak English so that I can understand.

I certainly appreciate all the things she does for me and all the love she spreads around to everyone else she loves. I love her so much.

I hope to win this special prize for my wonderful grandmother and I know she really deserves to win the prize too!

Sincerely
Tamika

Recycling Presentation!!!!

Learning Google Presentation

Today I learnt about Google presentation to post onto my blog. What I had to do was, click on boxes which tells me to click inside and type in a title and a little story. Google presentation would be good for presenting a slide show on wall stories to show others, put photos on to share with friends and to do simple text and image writing to stick on blogs.

My Maori Culture Poem!

Maori language is as easy as speaking another language.
Maori Legends and stories are as true as being a Maori.
Stars of Matariki are as bright as the sun shinning.
The Maori karanga is as louder said, than a volcano erupting.
The feathers sway peacefully in the air.
Tikis are scarier than a bull chasing after you.
The tribes are big like elephants stomping.
Doing carvings is harder than trying to break a rock.
Paua and green stone are as important to Maori people then treasure.
The haka is a special dance to the Maoris’ at a powhiri.
Pois are played fast like the wind running.
The children are like noisy animals.
Pork bones and puha are as delicious to some Maoris then Mac Donald’s.
Puipuis are swayed fast like the sea flowing.

My first post.
