Gold Rush

Gold Rush 

We had to watch a video about gold rush and now we have to writing the answers to the questions and the questions are on the video. We have to do a blog post of what we have learned and we also have been doing other stuff a round gold rush. 

What does the scenery look like in Hunter’s Gold. Use descriptive words It looks like it is fake but its not fake but that is what it looks like you could see old houses and green grass and you could see what it looked like in the old days and what it all looked like.
How do you think the little boy felt when his father didn’t return? He felt sad because he wanted to see his father but he didn't come Why do you think he felt that way? because his dad didn't come and he was happy to see his father also he felt up set because he has not seen his dad for a a long time.

Think of time when you haven’t seen someone for a long time. Who was it? My best friends Why couldn’t you see them? because we were in lock down How were you feeling while you waited to see them again? happy because I get to see them again.



I learned that the gold rush started in 24 January 1848 and that they didn't have cars and I learned that it looks a lot harder back then then it is now. New Zealand gold rush

Matariki

Matariki

In the Maori language, Matariki is both the name of the Pleiades star cluster and also of the season of its first rising in late May or early June. This is a marker of the beginning of the new year. Twinkling in the winter sky just before dawn, Matariki (the Pleiades) signals the Maori New Year. Traditionally, it was a time for remembering the dead, and celebrating new life. In the 21st century, observing Matariki has become popular again. Heaven-bound kites, hot-air balloons and fireworks help mark the occasion. It is 7 sisters and its about family Bye!!
