My Myth - The Night...

This is my myth that I have created and put onto a presentation. The reason why we're writing myths is because whoever has the best myth will get chosen to bring to life and will be put into a production. I hope my myth is chosen because I put a lot of hard work into this but either way, ENJOY reading.  

Percy Jackson & The Olympians: The Lightning Thief - Character Study

The two characters I chose were Percy Jackson and Annabeth. This task shows the different characteristics Percy and Annabeth have. It also shows what actions they have done in the movie and also how their characteristics change throughout the movie. This is just a screenshot of a third of the table. I couldn't screenshot the whole thing but to view the whole table click this link.

School Values in a Myth

Here is a Google drawing that I have made which is about how our school values are implemented and revealed in a myth.

Here is the link to my myth because you can't really see it on the drawing.

Kia Manawanui Auckland War Memorial Musuem Trip

Hey guys today me and my class Kia Manawanui went to the Auckland War Memorial Museum to explore different Myths and Legends(which is our Inquiry topic). It was so fun I learnt many new things for example some more myths from my own culture and even our Pacific cultures too. We even got to make and use things too. There was also a Mummy tomb feature that we got to look at but sadly not touch. I learnt so many things in that Mummy exhibit for example there was this vase called a Canopic Jar that ancient Egyptians used to put the Mummy's organs in(which is disgusting but back in the days people thought it was good because they thought that it would be needed in the afterlife). Back in the day Ancient Egyptians also put other things in the Mummy tombs for example tools, weapons, food and etc. They thought that all these things would be needed in the afterlife. The more wealthy you were the more things you'll have in your tomb. I also learnt that mostly only wealthy people were put into tombs while the poor people were just buried normal.  I also learnt other things but it's just too much that I can't explain it all.

Today was such a great experience(even though I've been there how many times)....

I think that you should also go to the Auckland Museum because it is such a great place to go to.

Myths and Legends Padlet

Created with Padlet

This is a Padlet that I have created. This Padlet shows different key words that relate to our Topic 'Myths and Legends'. In all these key words we had to find the definition and put it in our own words to show that we understand the meaning.
