Cinquan poems

                                     friends
                                always smiling
                           helping, loving, caring 
                        friends forever and always
                                   friendship

                                                                  spring
                             flowers blooming
                           lambing season starts 
                    lambs frolicking around outside
                                      season

Matariki weving

This is my matariki weving. We had to couluor in a plate with any matariki things we wanted. Then we made some cuts and threaded the wool through the cuts. Then we went through the sring we went under and over until we had no wool left. And this is what it turned out to look like. 

I am

I am a dancer with short brown hair
I wonder what i can do with my life
I hear my own voice in my head telling me to do the right thing
I see the sky towering above me far away
I want to be able to help the poor
I am a dancer with sort brown hair 


I pretend i am the hot sun towering over the earth
I feel i can change the world
I touch the stars in the night sky
I worry about what's in the future 
I cry when other people die 
I am a dancer with short brown hair


I understand i will never be perfect 
I say you should never give up
I dream for love and peace around the world
I try to achieve the goals of life
I hope i will live to see the future before my time is gone
I am a dancer with short brown hair
