 𝕋𝕖 ℝ𝕖𝕠: 𝕋𝕠𝕟𝕘𝕒𝕟 𝕃𝕒𝕟𝕘𝕦𝕒𝕘𝕖 𝕎𝕖𝕖𝕜 𝕊𝕠𝕟𝕘 / 𝕎𝕖𝕖𝕜 𝟟 / 𝕋𝕖𝕣𝕞 𝟛


Task Description:
Malo e lelei everyone! This is day four of Tongan language week this week and is Thursday. As it is Thursday some of you may know that on Thursday is the day of the week that the year sevens go tech and the year 8s do rotations. But again, we are still currently in lock down just for you's who don't know. Instead of doing rotations we just do Te Reo Maori. As this weeks Te Reo Maori lesson we had our task based on Tongan language week this week. For that we had a Traditional Tongan song that we all went through together during our online session. As our task, we had to go off when the meeting was finish and learn the lyrics of the song. I'm Tongan and I know how to read some of the words which made it easier and plus, I already knew the song so that was good. But if you are wanting to try and learn this song just watch the video on the slide and perhaps try learning the lyrics on the next slide . Also, if you want to know what the lyrics mean in English just scroll down to the last slide and it will be there. Check it out!

Kia ora everyone! As a little task we had to complete for literacy was this. My literacy class was shown this cool thing called 'Story Fantasy Stories' by my teacher. What it did was choose a topic for us just by pressing a button. Using that topic we got given we had to write about it. There was different layouts we were able to use but I choose the notebook.

Task Description:
Malo e lelei everyone! Its Tongan Language week. It is Week 7 and to start the week off we began with some math for the first meet. For math this week we have here called Vectors as our main topic as I know of for just this task and more of the  coordinates. For this task we had some algebra connected to it which was pretty interesting. It was super simple because all we had to do was find on the chart we were given what x was a y. And since it is Tongan language week, at the end was the last slide and it showed a map of Tonga. And so what we had to do was find the victor for each place we were told to look for. Check it out!

Ko e founga hono ma'ue Tonga a hono Hingoa

How Tonga got its name - Reading Warrior  

Long before Tonga was around there lived a pacific hero that roamed the pacific ocean searching for a place to find an island. And his name was Maui, the great legendary hero of the pacific ocean. He needed a hook to use to find a island so he went to Samoa and found a man who was called 'Tonga tau mata'u' ! Maui went to the man's little workshop to see if the man would lend a hook for Maui to use. Maui had a conversation with Tonga and he agreed to get out his hooks for Maui to choose only if Maui would name the island after him. Maui made a promise to name the island after Tonga but before he was off to find the island he had to choose a hook. Tonga took out his collection of hooks for Maui to choose. All of them were bright colors and were stunning. But Maui had caught something else and it was a scrubby and dirty old blue hook! Maui choose that hook which had Tonga confused as in why he choose that hook but Tonga was fine with it and then off Maui was in search for a Island. Maui searched and searched and ended up finding a green peace of island that he caught down the bed of the ocean. He than got ready to pull the island up to where he was by getting his hook and throwing it down wards to the island. Maui pulled the island up to the ocean's surface. " It's beautiful " said Maui. "I will call it Tonga as promised "!  THE END!  This book was written by David Riley If you are wondering. This book was super creative and fun to listen to as our teacher was reading it.
