Today - in PAIRS you are going to use a CONVENTION to share a whakatauki with another pair [pair/share].

In your blog- write down your whakatauki and the convention you used and also the whakatauki and the convention the other pair used.
eg: We illustrated
Nau te rourou naku te rourou
Your basket and my basket
by doing a ROLEPLAY of 2 students sharing their lunches.

Then share some thing about your favourite  Maori Perfomer.
eg:
Rawiri Paratene ONZM (born 1954) is a New Zealand stage and screen actor, director and writer. He is known for his acting roles in Whale Rider (2002) and The Insatiable Moon (2010) Paratene was born in Hokianga, New Zealand in 1954, and is of Nga Puhi descent.
Paratene initially struggled with reading and writing at school, but went on to be the first Maori graduate of the New Zealand Drama School.
As a young student in the 1970s, Paratene was a member of Nga Tamatoa, an activist organisation which fought for Maori rights, land, language and culture. Paratene was President of the Wellington chapter. Today, working in the arts, Paratene aspires to have more Maori stories on film.
