Summer Learning Journey Week 1 Day 2

For Four Weeks I will be posting on things about New Zealand. Today is the first day for the summer learning Journey and the title for today is In The Beginning ( 1800-1870).  Here are all the links for today's Activity's Maori Housing -Te Noho Whare ,



Activity 1: A House Or Home?
1. They carve in memories and history onto the walls while we have memories with objects.
2. They originally were made of bark, leaves and dirt, while European made their own materials with more room.
3. They hold funerals, to say goodbye and good luck, inside the Wharepuni while we use churches.

Activity 2: The Rules Of Engagement
Women were expected to marry at a young age.
Women were to stay at home with their children while Men had to go and work outside their homes.
Men and women are ow able to choose their paths and when and who they want to marry.

Bonus Activity: Special Meals

  1. Finely chop the onion. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil and a knob of butter in a pan, add the onions and fry until lightly browned (about 7 minutes). Add the bacon and fry for a further 5 minutes, until it starts to crisp.
  2. Add the rice and stock, and bring to the boil. Stir well, then reduce the heat and cook, covered, for 15-20 minutes until the rice is almost tender.
  3. Stir in the peas, add a little salt and pepper and cook for a further 3 minutes, until the peas are cooked. Serve sprinkled with freshly grated parmesan and freshly ground black pepper.

  1. Hi Nici,

    Ruby here from the Summer Learning Journey team!

    Activity 1: Good work! I really like how you've talked about the way they use carvings to preserve their memories and history. Can you think of any similarities between your house and a wharepuni?

    Activity 2: What women can and can't do has changed a lot over the years, hasn't it! I think it's great that women have so many options available to them now. What is your dream job? It would be great if you could draw a picture of your dream job and attach it to this blog post to earn full points for this activity.

    Bonus activity: That looks so yummy! I love risotto and that recipe looks very delicious. Do you make risotto often at your house? We have only made it a few times but one of my friends can make it like a professional!

    I look forward to reading more of your blog posts over summer.
    Cheers,
    Ruby.
