PBL Term 3

This term our Project Based Learning (PBL) has been about cultural stories and the big question was;

What is the significance in the 21st Century of our Cultural stories?

First we brainstormed what culture is and came up with lots of ideas. Culture is Tradition

Then we thought about our own culture and talked to our parents about our traditions and heritage. I wrote a post about my family and things we like to do.

In Literacy we read and discussed myths and legends from around the world then we concentrated on Maori legends. I read Maui and the Giant Fish and How Maui caught the sun.

We made a performance about the story Battle of the Mountains. Some students wrote the script, some of making all the artwork, some worked hard on organising the music and others took on the role of bringing the story alive with dance and drama.

Reflection:

For our production I contributed by Painting one of the Backdrop pieces and being an dancing bush

I think the show might impact on others by telling them they story of Battle of the Mountains

What I learned about working with others was that everyone can do different and amazing things!
