"CHOICES and CONSEQUENCES"

During week 1 the students in Room 1 were looking at the choices they made and the consequences of these actions. The purpose of this activity and task was to identify strategies to cope with hard choices at school, at home or on the sports field. At the end of the task the students from Room 1 believed that taking a deep breath and thinking before you make a choice was the best way to have a clear mind and make the right choice. I hope that the students listen to their own advice and research and take time to think their choices through.

As a fun way to introduce the Niuean language to the class I decided to teach Room 1 two Niuean games that children play at the Niuean village sports day. Game one is a skiing game where the students are dragged across the grass while holding onto a long stick. The idea is to balance and stay on the coconut tusk with out falling. The second game is a game just like javelin where the students must throw a stick called a "Sika" as far as they possibly can. The winner is the thrower who has thrown the "Sika" furtherest. ≈

Room 1 singing a beautiful Niuean song "Sipaio"

This week the class had learnt how to sing a song that every Niuean child learns when they are young. "Sipaio" is a fun vibrant song that translates to the movement of ones body when singing this vibrant song.  https://youtu.be/ZL7ig8fba1A Please visit this link and listen to the beautiful voices of Room 1 .
