John Pule

Today Room 1 had looked and talked about John Pule. A Niuean born artist who has lived in Auckland New Zealand since 1964. I think his artworks are to bring understatement about Pacific migration and the leap of faith Pacific Islanders have to take to create an income for them and their family. We had looked at one specific piece of art created by John which will be shown on the top left comer. 

We had talked on our thoughts about the art that is shown in the top left corner. Half of the class thought it was weird, I thought that shell was mean't new life cause the koru shaped rope on his head symbolized new life or new beginnings. But it was actually about the sea.

Niuean Language Week Poster

Niue Language Resources

Since it's Niuean Language Week for the past 7 days Mrs Allen has shown Room 1 a great site full of history, music and traditions. It also benefits the creators because the more exposure they get, the more they are helping keep the Niue culture alive.

If you would like to check the site out just click on the highlighted NIUE LANGUAGE RESOURCES to head on over. Remember to keep safe and stay in your bubble while Auckland and Waikato are in level 3.

Math Time

In today's first math session for term 4. When I joined the google meet I overheard them talking about suspicious deaths ending the lives of some famous names (Tupac, The Notorious B.I.G and many others). after that conversation died down the work had started. The students attending the meet were sent to Education Perfect. As the time flew by our session came to an end, so we had to set some goals before heading off.

Background Story

Education Perfect is used by many countries and students all across the world. It is not only for learning but also to learn. Education Perfect has a variety of subjects to choose from and including cultural games and learning the language. 

Trophy Update

In the past 2 months I have been working really hard to get better in my maths before heading off to college, to achieve this goal Iv'e been doing a lot of Transum and other math sites to improve. So the amount of work I have been putting in is a lot, For example: I had hit 400 trophies in 2 months which has only made me want to work harder so I can achieve 500 trophies in 3 months or 2 months and a couple of days, Right now I have 450 trophies, if I can gain 50 trophies in the next couple of days I would have achieved my goal of 500. Originally I had 410 trophies just yesterday but in 2 or 3 hours I had gained 40 trophies.  

Comment below how many trophies you have so far or if you like Transum.
