Today we went to the Museum we left at 10:00 when we got there we, we ate some food that we brought. Then we were told to go into the room where we did all our learning. The lady who was taking our lesson told us about all the things on the table they were all musical instruments she blew on them to show us the noises they make but some of them were too hard to play and others you had to play with your nose. There were two really cool ones one was called Porotiti and the other was called Purerhue you swung them throw the air and they made a wooshing sound the lady told us that we would decorate a Purerhue later. there was another I really liked it was a very big shell that was attached to a piece of wood with flax it was called Putatara.
We got to go outside and try and work the Porotiti but we weren't very good. we all did a quiz she played the sounds of the instrument and we had to mark what sound we thought it was, Anna and I were in the same group and got all the answers right. Then we got told how to use the Purerhue and then started to decorate them I used a fantail stensile and a stensile but I don't know what to call it. we were almost at the end of our visit so we had to hurry. We sang them a song and then Mrs hall said that we still had half an hour so Mrs hall let us walk around the museum we look at everything it was very interesting. I give this trip a rating of 9/10
Hi Cass,
ReplyDeleteI enjoyed reading about your trip to the museum. The musical instruments sound amazing, I cant imagine having to play an instrument with your nose though. the ones you threw in the air sound like fun. Well done to you and Anna for getting all your quizz answers correct, you must be great Makaraka listeners.
