Kapa Haka
I really love going to Kapa Haka. On Thursday afternoon the Kapa Haka group had to go to Room 20 to practice. When the bell rang we had to line up and wait outside room 20 for the teacher to come and open the door. We had to pack the desks on the sides because we didn’t have enough room to practice.
The boys and girls had to line up in two lines and practice while the teachers (Whaea Sophie and Ms Squires) taught us most of the moves. We had to sit down and listen to our teacher while she was telling us what the moves were going to be.
After we had learnt the actions we all waited for Whaea Sophie to teach Dylan how to play the guitar while we were singing and dancing at the same time. Our first actions was to put our hands on our ribs because we had to put more moves in our Kapa Haka group dance. When we finished we had to listen so that we would all know what and how our action were going to be.
What I love about Kapa Haka is that we learn more and exciting songs.

Hi Stephanie (what a great name)
ReplyDeleteI was having a look at Room 21's site and thought to myself, 'Hey that's an awesome name I wonder this person writes.' So I clicked through.
You might remember a few weeks ago some students from Wellington skyped through to Auckland. Those were students from my class.
I'm glad you enjoy Kapa Haka. We are very lucky to have Miss Tito working out Tawa Intermediate. I think you will probably remember her from Point England school.
Have you thought about videoing some of your Kapa Haka actions?
