Last week was Samoan language week and it was great to see some of our awesome Samoan students sharing their culture with us. Tali, Tonga and Melakai came in dressed and ready to go on Friday to show us some of their traditional dance moves. A massive thank you to Fili for coming in and supporting these boys and dancing with them too! Check out the video below!
This year we are doing phonics in our homerooms. Kiwi class looks at two letters and their matching sounds every week. Weka and Pukeko classes work together on one letter of the week. Each week we have a letter of the week wall where we display all the things we can find that begin with our letter of the week. Last week our letter was H and we had some fun having Harlin Haines wearing a hat on our h wall. Too cute not to share! This week our letter is J so get your thinking caps on Weka and Pukeko classes, what words do you know that start with J?
Fantastic Fili and boys, I was not in on Friday but I am happy someone took a video so that I could see. I bet you will grow up to be great dancers! We love learning about new cultures, thank you for sharing :-)

ReplyDeleteTalofa lava. This is so cool to see. I didn't know you did this. I think if we saw you out there, all of Whakamanawa would have come running to watch. Thanks for sharing. Fa'afetai lava.
