Maori Language moment

 

In 1972 30,000 signatures were delivered to safeguard the Maori language.

Safeguard means to protect the Maori language needed to be protected. Why? 

Three reasons why I think it needed to be protected.

1. The first reason is because the language could have been lost.

2. The second reason is because it is part of people's life.

3. My last but not least reason is because it is a prime language in New Zealand.

Kia Kaha te Reo Maori.

History of the Ngatu

 Task description: Today for writing I first watching a video of the history of Tonga, after watching it I wrote a couple of sentences that I learnt about in the video. In that case your wondering I wrote about the history of Ngatu/Tapa cloth. Here's my writing from what I let from the history of Ngatu:

When making the Ngatu / Tapa cloths the women first peel the bark from the tree that is cut down. The second thing you do once you're done peeling the bark is that they take it and hang it outside for the sun to dry it. Then you soak the dry bark into water so it can get soft. The fourth thing you do is beat the wood with a tool called an ike so that it can be more thin and wider. Then you let it dry again.
