What is the significance in the 21st Century of our Cultural stories?
First we brainstormed what culture is and came up with lots of ideas.Culture is…… Traditions that you might do that are different to others and where we are from.
Then we thought about our own culture and talked to our parents about our traditions and heritage. I wrote a post about my family and things we like to do.
In Literacy we read and discussed myths and legends from around the world then we concentrated on Maori legends. I read….Maoi and the sun,Battle of the mountains and loads more I have written my own legend called/I retold the legend of Maoi and the sun in my own words.
We made a performance about the story Battle of the Mountains. Some students wrote the script, some students took on the job of making all the artwork, some worked hard on organising the music and others took on the role of bringing the story alive with dance and drama.
Reflection:
For our production I contributed by doing dance
I think the show might impact on others by knowing more about the battle of the mountains
What I learned about working with others was that you may not always get you own way but you need to just go with it.
