The Highway Rat

Visulisation is creating pictures in your head. This helps understand what we read.

Highway Rat is about a Rat who is greedy and steals everyoues food. He learns a lesson and everyone
lives happily.

My visualisation is diffrent to other because we all have diffrent ideas.
We all have diffrent visualisation because have diffrent imaginations.

Place value & saying numbers

Place value is a system that groups numbers based on their size.

The position of a digit determines its value. When we say numbers we group then within the same house. For example 15709 has fifteen thousand , seven hundred and nine one.


Understanding our base 10 place value system allows us to pronounce big numbers properly. It also allows us to identify numbers before and after.

Mihi Whakatau

Mihi whakatau is a Maori term for a formal greeting.

Mihi Whakatau is traditionally used for welcoming, introductions and openings. It is undertaken by the Tangata Whenua (local inhabitants)

The Mihi needs to acknowledge the significent aspeds to the place. The Maunga (mountain) , Awa (river) and Iwi (tribe) are generally used.  

Introducing Ingoa (name) , Oku tipuna (ancestored place) and where you live is important for the audience to understand the position of the speaker.

Manuhiri is the term used to describe or group the visitor/s that are being welcomed. 

It is important to end with a warm welcome so the visitors know that there is no hostility in the 2 groups being together.

Being respectful of the land, the people and the purpose of a visit will ensure long lasting relationships and connections.

Handwriting

I learned how to write the alphabet, number, and symbols properly.

I watched a video to show neat handwriting. I wrote the characters neatly into my writing book.

I need to improve my j by writing the tail below the line.
