Waka

Challenge 9 design a waka. We had to answer these questions 

What would it have? (what reffering to the waka)

What does it look like? (same thing)


My waka would be short to fit about 1 to 12 people. It wouldn't have sails and would be lashed. I would have carvings on the Tauihu (prow) and Taurapa (stern post) and sides

Something we need at school.

Challenge 8 what is something we could have at school? I think that we could have some science equipment and have some time a week to do science. I think this because in college we do science and this could give at a bit of a boost before we go to college. 

Poppy

 Challenge 7 I made a poppy. I used a red and black bag I traced and cut out the bags. Then I got some grass and glued it all together. We also had write 5 facts: 1.Poppies are used to remember all those who had died in war.  2. They are worn in resemblance to they fighting war members not just ANZAC they are worn on events like Armistice Day. 3. When the soldiers went to war there were hundreds of thousands of poppies in the grass and when they fell they lay among the poppies. 4. They grew on battlefields because of rubble. 5. Poppies are needed to make morphine. Here's my poppy:

Fact file

 This is my 6th challenge it is an ANZAC fact file. It will just be facts about ANZAC day.

ANZAC got its name from the the soldiers who fought in the WW1 at Gallipoli and it stands for Australia and New Zealand Army Corps. ANZAC can be celebrated in parades or ceremonies. ANZAC is held on the 25th of April. Poppies and biscuits are significant to ANZAC. The relevance of poppies to ANZAC day is that poppies are used to remember all those who had died in war. They are worn in resemblance to they fighting war members not just ANZAC they are worn on events like armistice day that is held on November 11th. When the soldiers went to war there were hundreds of thousands of poppies in the grass and when they fell they lay among the poppies.The relevance of ANZAC biscuits is that women would send these biscuits to the war members because the recipe made them long lasting and good to eat while travelling.

 This is my 5th holiday challenge. My mum and I did some baking. We made a sponge cake, sponge cake is my favourite cake. This is me pouring the batter and pictures of the cake, ingredients and recipe.
