Our Trip to the Marae

Learner:  Jolin       Learning Coach: Luisa Maloni    Date: 19th June, 2015

Learning Area: Marae Trip

Learning Observed

Today, as part of our visit to Umupuia Marae in Maraetai, the learners were involved in a weaving activity. Jolin, Jared and Sofia, worked together, taking turns to weave the paper strips under and over the black strips. I observed them talking with each other trying to figure out if the strip needed to go over or under the black paper. Jolin told me that they chose the school colours for their weaving.

Evidence of learning

Jolin can work with a group to create a Maori weaving pattern.
