Haiku art

Hi I am Te Atawhai.  In term 2 I did some Haiku art about matariki.  I did my haiku art about a maori legend.  It was difficult to draw the faces of the  people.  I drew a man and a women.  I learnt that other countries have  different aspects of matariki . This is what I wrote

 As they did there hair. 
The sound of beautiful noise, 
They could not resist. 


I know I was successful because I had 5 syllables the start.  
7 at the middle and 5 at the end.
I think i did a good picher.
Tell me if you think it is good in the comments.

penguin boxes for little blue penguins

Check out our Gisborne Herald article about our penguin boxes here

Our Inquiry Topic is Actions speak louder than words 
This term we made penguin boxes.The population are going down fast.
We did this because the penguins need to breed.It is also a house for them.
We placed our Penguin boxes by the Hamanatua  Stream. We also placed our Penguin boxes by wainui beach school.
To monitor our penguin boxes we have a map.You can access the map on my blog post underneath.
Nga Manu Waiata will further support us by putting traps by our boxes.For free!
