Pohutukawa @ Waitara Central School

  We have been learning about our digital footprint. It means that you can see all the things you do on your chromebook and the internet. These are our very own digital footprints. We created them by looking at our browsing history, cut and paste our digital footprint in the sand. Something we found challenging was finding the history and copy and pasting the images in the correct order.

This week we read the Battle of the Mountains Legend, retold by Annie Rae Te Ake Ake. This story tells about how our maunga, Mt Taranaki, came to be situated here on the west coast of the North Island. We were learning about summarising. As we read the story, we thought about the most important parts. After we finished reading, we tried to retell the story in 5 main points. Each of us got to create a visual summary of our favourite part of the story.  We created our illustrations by Pōhutukawa. The best classroom :). We are proud of our illustrations because, We put alot of time and effort in designing and creating our illustrations. We hope you like them!  What is your favourite legend? - Tongariro
