My favourite Moari songs

the first song i did was Poi-e, the second song was the Maori calendar Maramataka, my third one is Aotearoa, my fourth one is wairua, my fifth one was pokarekare ana, and my six one was The Lords Prayer,

my last song is going to be E Noho E Ata (Tuhetia)

out of all of these songs i liked Aotearoa, because it has more tune

and it sound so good i wanted to listen all night.

Imagine that you were a child in the 1800s and you had nine siblings.

On your blog, please tell us how you would feel. Would you enjoy being a member of such a large family? Why or why not?

I think I would feel happy. I would enjoy being a member of such a large family because I would enjoy spending time with them playing. There would be less jobs to do and we would be done quicker and we get to rest more.

This is my family eating dinner with me and I am having lots of fun!

My favourite food is coleslaw. It is my favourite food because when I take my first bite it reminds me of that feeling of garlic butter melting in your stomach. It has cabbage, cheese, salad dressing, mayonnaise,carrots, pepper and onions.

The differences between the wharepuni and my house are that my house has no Maori patterns, also my house has a my room, my mum and dad's room and my brothers' rooms and my sister's room and the wharepuni only has one big room.

The things that are the same are that my house is made out of wood, the wharepuni is also made out of wood, are house is for having shade, shelter from rain and for sleeping at night, the wharepuni is the same.
