Lockdown round 2

Hi everyone, hope you are staying safe in lockdown.  

It's been a while since we've been quarantined, and often being isolated at home can quite obviously get boring at times, so here are some ideas to keep you busy and content at home.

What do you do to stay busy in lockdown?

Maui fish story- script

Kia ora,

Today we had to write a story about how Maui created the North Island, after that we had to create an animation. I'll update it when Pippa and I have made that.

This is our script:

Matariki Explanation Animation

Presented By Choi-Boi Stations

Kia ora everyone, I'm back with another blog post!

Animators: Isabella S, Pandora H

Script Writer: Felix C

Voice actors: Felix C as the farmer and Tāwhirimātea, Pandora H as the narrator and side characters, and Isabella S as essentially anything else.

Since Matariki is coming up soon, we were tasked to create a short film or book to explain to the younger students in our school a little bit about what has been said to have happened, and why we celebrate it today. It had to be intriguing for the younger kids, and since heaps of people were doing puppet shows, we decided to animate sock puppets. It's not done yet, but we will update or make a new post when its done.

*I will edit the post soon and add the movie*

Blurb: Tucked away in a small village, a farmer tending to his crops gets a glimse of an extraordinary sight- no one believes him of course, but little did anyone know, there was something a lot more sinister going on behind the scenes- and it was real, very real.

Learning To Count To 10 In Samoan: Scratch Edition

For our Samoan language studies we had to create a simple scratch program in under 10 minutes teaching you how to count from 1-10 in Samoan. Just write in the English numeral and it'll come up with the answer!

Counting To 10 In Samoan

For our Samoan Language studies today we have been learning to count to 10 in Samoan.

The Samoan language is very similar to Moari so this wasn't too hard.

Here is my animation explaining how to count in Samoan:

Samoan Language Studies

Kia ora everyone!

This term we are learning Samoan. We first learnt  a bit about Samoa, like how they love their dances, where they are located, and more.

Then we learnt the basic Samoan Greetings:

1.  Fā = Bye
2. Tōfā soifua = Goodbye 
3. Talofa lava = Hello (Formal)
4. Talofa = Hi (Casual

We are now learning the alphabet, and we were meant to make a DLO about the alphabet and how to pronounce each letter, but I was away when we were tasked to do so, so here is a small chart of the alphabet itself.

And here is the slide I made at the beginning of them term with a bit of info about Samoa in it:
