Week 8 mmmm

M Mobile Molly

This week we are learning about the sound m - Mobile Molly

We are learning to identify the different parts of a Wharenui (Big House - on a Marae) and  to use a range of materials and work as a team to create a wharenui.

What we did:

- Used some rods to create the wharenui
- named parts of the wharenui
- learnt a song to help us remember the parts of the wharenui (to the tune of head, shoulders, knees and toes)

Parts of the Whare song:

tekoteko (Statue at the top), koruru (Face), mahi (arms), raparapa (Hands) X 4
amo (Legs), pae pae (Feet), pare (Top of the Door), whakawae (Door Frame)X 1



I will post photos from our Marae trip soon. I hope you all enjoyed the experience. I know I did.
