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 where I am from and my Traditions like going to church every Easter, wearing a special dress on Christmas day.
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 Sun, Battle of the mountains
We made a performance about the story Battle of the Mountains. Some students wrote the script, some students took on the job of making all the artwork, some worked hard on organizing the music and others took on the role of bringing the story alive with dance and drama.
Reflection:
For our production I contributed by creating and performing Dance and Drama.
I think the show might impact on others by them learning all about the Battle of the Mountains
What I learned about working with others was to listen to their ideas and being kind
What plays or Performances have you done before?
