Hello bloggers and welcome back to my blog. This week in Wānanga we are learning about Dwali. Heres some information hope you enjoy What is Rongoli patterns?

Rongoli patterns are bright and coloured designs which are drawn on the floor to decorate homes and temples. They are drawn with a mixture of rice flour, water, flower petals, coloured powder and sand. Hindus believe that Goddess Lakshmi will see the patterns and visit their homes. Many different gods and goddesses are prayed to during Diwali in the hope of bringing good luck and success. There bright beautiful designs that connect with Diwali. They are placed to welcome the Hindu Goddess Lakshmi, He is the goddess of wealth to your house and the thought of bringing good luck with them into your home. They are orginated in India but are produced wherever Hindy people are celebrating.

What does the Rangoli symbolize?

The rangoli represents the happiness, positivity and liveliness of a household, and is intended to welcome Lakshmi. It is believed that a Hindu household without a clean entrance and rangoli is a abode of daridra (bad luck). The purpose of rangoli is beyond decoration.

The story befind Rnagoli art.

Lord Brahma instructs the king to draw an image of the boy on the floor. He then breathes life into the image. This is the earliest reference to Rangoli, or floor art, in Indian epics. The Ramayana also makes serveral references to this art form.

The bubonic Plague

Hello everyone and welcome back to my blog. It’s great to have you reading again and if your new I’m Frankie.T. This week or last I believe that my class and I have started a study on the bubonic plague. The bubonic plague was a massive illness that killed thousands of people. It went from 1347 to 1351. You may have heard of it just by a different name like the black death, or for short just the plague, and I think there could be more nicknames if there is comment it down below and correct me. The plague first originated in China. The plague spread by a bacteria called Yersinia Pestis found in the fleas that are common in rats. Back in those years everybody was mostly poor and if you were poor you were dirty. Rats were commonly found around their towns across the world. In different countries there were more rats then others. The rats had the fleas which carried on to the humans when rats where around the local people. But even doctors didn’t know the cause to the illness. At the time most people thought it was because of bad air, so they would put flowers around hoping it would help. The symptoms of the plague were fever, chills, headaches, body aches, vomiting, diarrhea, and more. In London when it started spreading Charles the II fled to the city. The poor would put red X’s on the door to symbolise “Lord have mercy upon us,” to be set close over the same cross there to be continue until lawful opening of the same house”. Then once Charles the II left the poor and locked the gate the poor could only leave if they had a calcified health certificate. More poor eventually died. I found all this learning interesting I love learning about things like this, the only thing I didn’t enjoy was driver how many people died. I hoped you learned something if you want some more information comment down below and I’ll try reply as soon as I can but thank you for your time to read this. Hope you have a great day byee before you go check out my DLO for the the plague hope you enjoy♡♡

Post War Aotearoa

Hello and welcome back to my blog post. Today I have finished two of my reading follow-up activities so it’s time to post!! So lately for literacy/social studies, we have been starting a brand new learning experience. As last time we did the modern Olympics and did some research on that. But now we have begun on post-war. You should definitely go check out the blogs about the modern Olympics and ancient Olympics. Here are my work results it after I finished reading.

Modern Olympics

Hello and welcome back to my blog this week my class is now working on tasks related to the modern Olympics. We had started it last week. Last term we were doing ancient Olympics I hope all of you got to have a look at that and read it! For this task, we got to choose a sport that will compete in the Olympics this year. Then we had to research these sports questions like who invented the sport what year it was invented, and what kind of exercises we think would need to be used for this sport. The sport I chose was men’s gymnastics really easy to research. Then another bit we did for this was to find where all the sports were going to be taking place and write them down beside the sport. Our school does a system where we choose the type of level of work we think we are up to. These levels are Ace, Pro Legend, And Titan. These all represent the easiest to the hardest ace being the easiest pro a bit harder legend medium level for most and titan being the hardest/intimidating. For myself I thought in my mind at first I could do Titan so I ended up doing Titan here are the finished results! Thank you so much for reading have a great morning/afternoon/night.

Ancient Olympic Games

Hello everyone today I finished my ancient Olympic games slideshow. So as one of the must-do activities. I ended up finishing it today in period 3. The must-do was to make a poster/slideshow of your own custom sport that would be introduced into the Olympics (680 BCE). So the sport I created was dodgeball with arrows. So obviously you would have to dodge the arrows to live or win the game. If you died then you would straight away lose and die. This is the slideshow hope you enjoy it!!
